In normal circumstances a bunch of us would be heading west this weekend to @dinglefoodfest in Kerry where the @blasnaheireann awards would be announced. Instead we have a little message for all the producers taking part....

Now that we are all getting out and about a bit more, it’s important to remember to support your local shops, cafes and producers. If you have a choice between a locally run cafe or product and an international one, maybe choose to spend your money local #buylocal #irish 🇨🇮

We grow 10 different varieties of lettuce all year round at the Cookery School. Everyday we have a delicious green salad with lunch. To the lettuce we add salad greens, edible flowers and plant offshoots, as well as a simple vinaigrette to make the perfect salad.
