The Glasshouse in Kilult is a wonderful organic growing facility, situated near the sea in North Donegal, just outside Falcarragh. On site they have a comemercial greenhouse, a number of commercial polytunnels and acres of outdoor growing space.
Unfortunately the last time I visited my camera failed on me, but here’s a few pics from inside the main Glasshouse showing some crops which are under the care of Trainee Horticulturists Jamie and Angela…..and boy oh boy they’re looking great!!
