ABOUT THE FARM HOLDING
Ann Marie and Shay live on the farm with their three young boys. The boys each have a pony they groom and ride.
The farm is certified organic and dairy is the main product. Shay does all of the work with the dairy cows. In addition to dairy the family also breed goats, sheep and poultry. There is a small house garden for growing vegetables which the family are hoping to improve and increase.
The farm has been in the family for generations.
