Passionate pet farm serves up wild times

On farms, there is a continuity of understanding and respect for the land and the animals it supports. Farming is still very much a family affair; the lifestyle is that of a custodian, keeping pace with the inevitable changes over the years, but retaining old courtesies such as welcoming strangers and visitors. So, there is no better place for the establishment of open farms.

Ireland’s visitor farms are generally working establishments, which welcome the non-farmer’s curiosity about all aspects of farm life, and their children’s eagerness to embrace all manner of small fluffy animals.
