“

The quality of the produce is very good. Especially since purchasing my eggs and chicken from the farm I realized the average to poor quality of produce I would have gotten before, though also free range. On time delivery and updates as to when exactly he would deliver. Very happy I found them. They were recommended to me by a nutritionist

I ordered the Wagyu steaks as I'd a friend coming to stay and wanted a special treat, and boy they did not disappoint! Even raw, you could feel how tender the meat is, and such a deep colour! I cook to a medium rare, it was so juicy and a flavour unlike any I've had before, just divine!

The quality of the pasture raised eggs, that Fior Bhia farm provide is incredible. High in vital nutrients and the taste is so rich. Chickens obviously has been raised on their natural intended diet , this is evident in super rich yolk color.

Got to check out the farmers market and the launch of the Fire pit last week. Satisfying for the mind body & spirit. As soon as you come down the lane you're on forest time.
Heartening to see food sustainably produced in Ireland, free from gluten, artificial fertilisers, sprays and preservatives. Packed full of flavour and satisfaction, plus it's the ultimate traceability when you're buying direct from the farmer!
