We are a small family run fruit and nut tree nursery in the southeast of Ireland and are passionate about the propagation of fruit, nut and unusual edible plants.

Our fruit and nut tree nursery is situated on a 4.5 acre smallholding which has not been ploughed or  chemically sprayed in over 20 years and is host to diverse plant, insect and wildlife which includes the rare Tawny mining bee(Andrena Fulva).

All fruit and nut tree varieties we have for sale are planted at our nursery so in time we can give first hand advice on growing each tree.

We grow our fruit and nut trees without chemicals or artificial fertilizers.

If we need to fertilize our fruit and nut trees we use comfrey tea, seaweed or chicken manure pellets.

On the rare occasion where a fruit or nut tree becomes overwhelmed with pests we use a targeted approach and use Organic approved Pyrethrum daisy spray in the morning to avoid harming beneficial insects.

Our Bareroot fruit and nut trees are grown in beds without ploughing the soil.These beds need very little added medium each year and require less water than potted plants we believe this is the most sustainable way to produce fruit and nut trees.

The pots we use for berry plants and shrubs at our nursery are second hand which we collect from other nurseries.We use tall grow bags for our trees as we believe the tall bags provide the best growing environment for tree roots and avoid roots circling in the pot.

We are continually looking at ways in which we can improve the sustainability of our nursery and hope in the future to be Organically certified.
