Dublin Zoo venture highlights land as the source of wholesome food

AN interactive and interpretive farm is being developed in Dublin Zoo to highlight the work of the land and how it is the source of wholesome food.

The aim of the 1.5 acre site on the grounds of the Zoo’s existing City Farm is to “immerse” almost 900,000 annual visitors in the science and practices of everyday farming life.

The site, currently under construction, will also help educate families on where their food comes from and the role of the farmer in ensuring its quality and traceability.
