Glencullen Farm

“Dublin’s environmentally conscientious community of allotment growers”

Glencullen Farm sits quietly in foothills of south Dublin, enveloped by preserved woodlands and native hedgerow. Pastural land historically, the allotments are a natural recreational retreat, with panoramic views of both Little and Big Sugarloaf running down to the Irish sea. The soil is of fine arable quality and with a light footprint, we tend and enrich the biodiversity of this unique, special place.
