Using a farm shop and café to maximise your organic business

Using a farm shop and café to maximise your organic business

This week on the Organic Matters Podcast, we meet vegetable grower and farm shop and café owner Michael Foggarty. Michael originally hails from Scotland but has long harboured a love for growing vegetables.

In 2022, he took on a 5-acre plot of land in Beechpark, Clonsilla, Co Dublin and since then has been working to maximise the output from his vegetables selling to restaurants as well as direct sales, alongside building up a farm shop and café on site.

He talks about the wide range of organic produce grown on the farm and the importance of soil health and working with nature.
