Hard graft sees Kevin and Liz feted by the food industry

A couple have received a top food award a year after setting up their business, writes Majella Flynn.

A family-run dairy in West Cork has won two gold awards for its milk and cream at the prestigious Blas na hÉireann Irish Food Awards — just a little more than a year after it was established.

Gloun Cross Dairy, set up by Kevin and Liz O’Donovan on the family farm near Dunmanway, produces and supplies pasteurised, non-homogenised fresh milk and double cream to shops, supermarkets, restaurants, hotels, and homes all around West Cork.
