Thank you... 2 very small words, which means so much. Fantastic organic box this week with only 2 elements not locally sourced, we are coming out of the hungry gap at last... people loved the veg at Swinford Indoor Market thank you to all that sold our products. Lots of banter on the hill again, weather and the El Nino pattern at the top. Hard year so far to grow veg but its getting there. We are closed on the 13th as I have my exams in Dublin ... get lighting candles at this stage 🤣 see you all on the 20th and the food preserving course on the 21st ❤️

Well folks, we haven’t even got this weeks ad up, let us off, it’s been crazy here for a week but the order book is open for Saturday trading … WA 0877957190… now in other news, Bovear is back in the headlines with Arla at the forefront… massive merger with German company. Raw and organic milk will get harder to source … interestingly we called this 1 year ago and Bovear does not have to be shown on food labels… comments are interesting … think milk, cheese, butter, yogurt, protein drinks… and much more…

Well flip me... we have been here 3 years today... then someone triggered that I lost Fred, 5 years ago... Fred was a beautiful person in our life that we lost in 2021... veg was our connection, music was our soul... Biscuit Radio was our love. FRED hated this song, I loved it 😆 if you want a giggle, click on the link below... I love Herbert Albert ,Rise ..

Well done Irish Rural Association for catching this article. I am very concerned about food labeling of contents, non EU chicken on the back and large label on the front stating chicken prepared and packed in Wexford. Read the back of packets, boycott all foods with palm oil in them (there's alot), cook from scratch with butchers meat and organic flour (only €3 1.5kilo organic strong flour at our farm shop.) Find the good foods and let's continue this food revolution

The Competition and Consumer Protection Commission has said it has identified a number of potential breaches of consumer law during 80 unannounced inspections of businesses in six counties.

Well thank you again.. . At least 30 plus new people walked through the gates today wanting to know what we are all about. BUT we wouldn't still be here without our regular crew of customers so double thank you 😊. BBQ packs gone, Irish strawberries flew out, can't get enough organic veg and then there's The Wee Derry Shot... sold out again and could have stocked more... so we will have a free tasting session next week... pop up and try it for yourself, but I will tell you now, down it in one 🤣 what is good for you never tastes OK 😆 remember me heaving over black seed oil ... shudders and it tastes better than that thank goodness ... anyways thank you, each and every customer... shop locally, use independents, use cash when you can and this tag was mentioned 4 times today , its trending ....

F12PY11. So we have been on this for 12 days... I have to say we are impressed. All joint and muscle pains have gone. Energy levels are up, and I am very convinced that it has help John heal quicker as his wounds are healed completely, so quickly. So fresh stocks available tomorrow and we sell it €12.. you know us, we try and match or cheaper than any competitor because we aren't greedy on profit. As long as we break evan we are happy ❤️
