Our Growing method

We grow our Raspberries in glasshouses here on the farm. Raspberries are suited to relatively cool temperatures and therefore perfectly suited to glasshouse production.

Seasonality Calendar

Irish season for raspberries is usually mid-May right through to November

The Lifetime of
a Raspberry

Raspberry plants can live up to 10 years. Each year they grow new canes. These canes last for 2 years. Raspberry plants also grow underground runners which sort into new plants – meaning you can have raspberry plants for many years!

Don’t store raspberries in an airtight container as they need air and circulation in order to stay fresh

To reduce food waste why not freeze your leftover berries to eat for a later day

Our Growers

When you pick a raspberry from a plant don’t squeeze the berry as you’ll damage it - all you have to do is give it a gentle tug and it should fall off into your hand
