Castleruddery Organic Farm

The 10Ha farm is divided into habitat areas, forestry, old pasture, a small orchard and the vegetable plots.  

The cropping area consists of 1500 m² of polytunnels, 50 x 20m permanent no dig beds and the rest of the vegetable area is currently in overwintering green manure crops.

We are in the process of converting more of our growing areas to the no dig system which we started trialling in 2020 and are now ‘hooked’. We are very impressed with how well the crops grow and have seen huge improvement in quality and yields over the past 3 years. We plan to increase the area devoted to no dig this year.  The farm has been in operation as an organic farm since 1989.

We sell our produce through our farm shop and to restaurants both locally and in Dublin. We also wholesale vegetables to other organic growers. We love to grow many types of vegetables and are not afraid to try unusual varieties and try new crops each year.
