    Is glen of downs so small thats all I need to find, a goat will point his hoof in the general direction when I get there?

    Cant track the farm down by phone number at the moment.

    I've been there before once before. You can only get into it when heading northbound on the N11, so if you're coming from Dublin you'll have to go through Kilmacanogue, down as far as the Glenview Hotel turn-off and do a U-turn and head back towards Dublin. The turn-off for the farm is signposted (although not that clearly IIRC) on the left about a kilometre further on. You can see it on the other side of the road as you're heading southbound, so keep an eye out and you'll know what you're looking out for on the way back. Just drive slowly and keep your eyes peeled. Good Luck!

    One advantage of buying from the farm directly is that the stuff keeps for much longer. Well, OK it doesn't actually keep longer, but you're getting it straight off the production line as it were, and it doesn't spend weeks hanging around in the distribution chain before it gets to the shops, when it only has a week or so left before it's sell-by date.

    Instead of moving this I think I'll close it. If you need any more help go to the particular regional forum. This has nothing to do with this forum.
    Au revoir!
