‘We just go out and pick what we need for dinner’
East Cork vegetable farmers Joe and Sandra Burns see eating seasonally and educating the next generation as the cornerstones of sustainability, so it’s all hands on deck as their children learn through doing, writes .
Joe and Sandra Burns have a 36-acre vegetable farm at Ballycurraginny outside Killeagh in East Cork. Five years ago, they began producing gourmet crisps as a way of adding value to their produce. Joe’s Farm Crisps have since taken off and are available at retailers all over Ireland, as well as from their Farmer’s Market stalls in Co Cork.
