With 99 acres spread over the rolling hills of Balrickard in North Co. Dublin, McNally family Farm is a family owned and operated business growing an expansive variety of different vegetables and certified Organic for over 25 years. We grow with the seasons which means everything is picked by us at the perfect time of year and sold directly to our customers at our farm shop and markets throughout Dublin. Each year we challenge ourselves to find new and interesting vegetables to grow.
We strongly believe that selling direct to customers allows for better prices, better produce, and a better relationship between people and their food. We've been the strongest proponents of the Short Food Supply Chain since we first began selling directly to local customers in 1997 at the Temple Bar Food Market. Since then, with the help of our customers, fellow food producers, and the whole family we've expanded into several other markets and opened our farm shop and Cafe on our farm in Balrickard. With our own farm shop, not only do we get to sell our wonderful variety of Veg with the shortest possible supply chain, we also get to highlight other amazing Irish food businesses.
We also use our seasonal vegetables to produce an ever changing menu of delicious food in our cafe thats also located on the farm. We want to show the potential of great veg in cooking and we don't think theres a better way than producing something ourselves for you to savour.
