Taste the nation: How a Cork couple hatched a plan to deliver local produce to people's doors

Husband and wife Michael and Carmen O’Sullivan are passionate about growing their own food and eating as locally as possible. A number of years ago, they began keeping hens, doling out any eggs that they couldn’t use to friends and family.
“You know yourself,” says Michael. “Once you’ve tried an egg from your own hens you don’t want to eat any other kind ever again.” “Back then, we had three chickens and a cockerel - Henrietta, Mags, Mrs Brown and Willy,” explains Carmen.
