Rural Life
Forget chocolates and flowers, a Wicklow-based farmer has come up with a novel idea, a Valentine's experience with alpacas.
Agri-Business
Total funding of almost €300,000 is available for agri-food tourism projects under the 2024 Rural Innovation and Development Fund.
Grants of up-to €200,000 are available to farmers wanting to diversify into agri-tourism from the the LEADER programme.
The couple behind Mayo's Glen Keen sheep farm, Catherine and Jim Power, said they found agri-tourism to be a really rewarding business.
