WE farm 250 acres near Aughrim in Co Wicklow. The farm has been family operated down through the years.

Myself and wife Teresa have six in our family; five daughters – Joanne, Carmel, Sinead, Triona and Clare – and son Ciaran, who is now playing the biggest part on the farm and with the horse-breeding end. The girls have all settled in Ireland and they too all played a part on the farm.
