Our ever popular Rock Farm Tours will recommence on Thursdays, beginning on 24th March. It’s a busy and exciting time on our organic farm in the Boyne Valley as Carina Conyngham and our team at Rock Farm Slane have just been announced as winners of the Irish Food Writers’ Guild Environmental Award 2022.
Guided tours are a fascinating insight into our pioneering 90-acre organic farm and ecotourism destination here on the historic Slane Castle Estate. It’s a great opportunity to learn about the life of an organic farmer and artisan producer. Visitors will see our rare breed animals like Dexter cows and Tamworth pigs as well as the happy flock of chickens who provide free range eggs. The tour includes the organic market garden, the fields of barley used for the whiskey made at Slane Distillery as well eco-tourism, glamping and strawbale buildings. Also included are sample tastings of produce from the Farmers Market.

The cost is €15 per person and tours must be pre-booked oby emailing info@rockfarmslane.ie or calling us on 041-9884861.
