MEET THE FARMERS

Cathal and Michelle

Hi, we're Cathal and Michelle, a husband and wife team who moved to Fanad in 2020 to pursue our dream of running a regenerative farm. We're passionate about sustainable farming and committed to restoring the land, promoting biodiversity, and providing nutrient-dense, ethically raised produce for our local community.

​

I’m Cathal, and my background includes a degree in Environmental science with Marine studies , a Level 6 Certificate in Agriculture, and a range of hands-on roles, from surf instructor to locksmith and carpenter. I’ve also spent time at sea as a member of the scientific crew onboard the Irish research vessel Celtic Explorer and worked with the Marine and Fisheries Division of DAERA in Northern Ireland. This diverse experience has shaped my practical, down-to-earth approach to farming. Now at Mulroy Meadow Farm, I focus on regenerative practices that rebuild soil health and create a more sustainable food system. I’m also passionate about sharing my knowledge through farm tours and educational programs, helping others understand the benefits of farming in harmony with nature.

 

I’m Michelle, a pharmacist who recently transitioned away from pharmacy full-time to invest more time in the farm. My passion for health has always guided my career, but now I’m focused on understanding how food production impacts our well-being. These days, we spend most of our time managing the farm, raising our two young children, and enjoying the company of Rosie, our rescue dog, who’s very much like our first child. Together, we’re working to create a healthier, more sustainable future for all of us.

ABOUT MULROY MEADOW FARM

Mulroy Meadow Farm is a regenerative farm set by the stunning Mulroy Bay in Fanad, North Donegal. We produce pasture-raised eggs, forest-raised traditional breed pork, and grass-fed beef, all while offering farm tours and educational programs to share our journey. Our farm is holistically managed, ensuring that all animals live chemical-free lives with the freedom to roam and express their natural behaviours.
​
As a family, we’re passionate about what we do, and we take great pride in offering an authentic farm experience for our visitors. Join us to learn about regenerative agriculture, reconnect with nature, and discover where your food truly comes from.
​
You can find our honesty boxes at the farm (F92NP59) and outside Brennan’s Pharmacy in Creeslough (F92CH21). We also sell our produce each Wednesday at the vegetable market in Carrigart (eggs available weekly; pork and beef can be ordered directly).
