Yesterday we hosted Glandore National School onto our farm . It’s part of a new initiative between farmers , co-ops and Carbery where we bring schools out on farm. Showing how our food is produced, we all had a ball!! #grasstomilk #classroomtofarm

Always impressed by how innovative Carbery Group is. More of this from other co-ops please 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
