THE BURREN

The Burren is known for its food. Many of us sell through local shop and farmers markets.

Burren Food Experience - Visit the Burren

WORKSHOPS & Guided Walks

Each year, using a glasshouse, we cultivate from seed most of our herbs, flowers and vegetables, which means that friends and other growers can get nursery plants from us. Otherwise all of our plants are grown outdoors. This has given us good experience of seasonal planting and soil conditions necessary to grow well. Composting and soil management are a vital part of the garden routine. Much of the fruit, vegetables and herbs grown go into the food we produce under the label Burren Kitchen Garden, which we sell at the local farmers market on Saturdays. These foods are primarily sweet and savoury preserves. We have also been having fun with designing the elements of the garden from locally sourced materials, building garden objects and play objects for children. Being so close to the Burren, woods we forage for wild foods, such as hazelnuts, blackberries and sloes. As we are in the north Burren on the southern shore of Galway Bay we do shoreline walks also, hightlighting the maritime heritage and food.
