Starting an organic flour mill as a farmer
This week on Organic Matters, we hear from Monaghan farmer Turlough Keenan. Turlough was previously a beef farmer but transitioned to organic tillage. Since then, he has been on a journey to create his own on-farm mill to produce flour from a range of heritage wheat varieties for artisan bakeries. He speaks about the story so far including his experience of organic tillage, the ins and outs of milling grain and the opportunities open to other farmers.
