Swainstown Farm
Swainstown Farm, based in Kilmessan, Co. Meath, has been farmed by the Preston family since the early 18th century. Since 2017, they have been converting what was a traditional wheat and suckler farm, towards a new path, dedicated to producing healthy nutrient-dense and chemical-free food. They currently grow a wide range of chemical-free fruit and vegetables, and a small flock of 100% grass-fed lamb.
They aim for minimal intervention in their farming practices, which means their vegetable garden is no-till, no tractors & no chemicals. Their pastures are managed in a way that mimics nature; moving their mixed species herd daily onto fresh pasture & allowing a long time for the land to recover thereby promoting biodiversity and locking carbon down in the soil. This also keeps our livestock free from parasites & they never have to routinely medicate their animals.
The Piggery is now closed for Winter! Will reopen next Spring.

Order a delicious cup of locally roasted Ethiopian coffee and do your weekly veg shop, whilst nibbling on a homemade brownie.
Fresh from the farm - you can buy chemical free veggies and flowers harvested the day before, free range eggs from the chickens, apple juice from the orchard and our 100%grass fed lamb and pork sausages.
They also sell a whole range of local sustainable produce from honey to cheeses, cured meats, organic beef, ice cream and more!
But most of all, they are looking forward to opening the doors and seeing you all again.
