Our Farm
Since the 1800’s, the Smith Family has farmed the same lands, nestled between lakeland and rich forestry in the North-East of Ireland. We trace in the footsteps of our ancestors every day as we walk the same fields in the parish of Mullagh, County Cavan.
Sustainability
Sustainability is one of our core values and is considered in everything we do. We approach things holistically, and ensure to improve upon and maintain quality procedures at every turn. When we talk about sustainability, we not only look to environmental measures, but also to our local community and economy. This is an image of our wildflower meadow in full bloom.
We are proud members of Bord Bia’s Origin Green, the world’s first sustainable food production programme.
As part of our Origin Green journey, we recently completed the development of a new facility on our farm. This state-of-the-art building enhances our farm, our chickens and ultimately our community, and incorporates the following sustainability measures:
Low-energy lighting
To reduce our energy requirements
Extra insulation
To reduce fossil fuel usage
Enhanced habitats
To enable wildlife to flourish
Installation of beehives
To support our natural eco-system
Quality Standards
We are committed to quality. The high standards and love for farming that our family passed on to us is visible in every aspect of our process today. This means that we can guarantee Irish families a superior eating experience consistently; and with almost thirty years of free-range production experience behind us - it’s safe to say that we know our chicken!
