Great selection of home grown vegetables as well as some locally sourced produce.
Wonderful farm, super eggs and veg.
Lovely event space, favours staff and great sauna. Plus the food is amazing. Highly recommend it.
Great business. Nice to see a proactive farmer with a farm shop. We need more of this in ireland.💫
What a wonderful surprise. As you drive along the old Dublin Rd from Craughwell to Loughrea. You wonder what’s going on in roadside fields with lots of poles in them. I don’t know what they are for but you get drawn in by the signs for Mad Yolk Farm. Delicious eggs and locally grown veg and other sustainability produced products. Plus! A sauna!! And plunge pool! Mad it is! Brilliant also. Must stop, eat, dip!! Just do it.
Love the concept. Raw milk and raw yogurt were sold out. Got myself some eggs and garlic. You can pay by QR code or cash.
Rebuilding the food system, from the farm up
Mad Yolk Farm is absolute gem of a place - from local fresh organic veg and eggs that you can buy in the honesty shop (along with bread, honey, milk and lots of other local products) to amazing events that are held in the event space and of course the sauna - my personal favourite! It's such an asset to local community and anyone visiting, I recommend it to anyone like I'm on a commission 🤣 And if you bump into Brian, the guy who owns it you'll realise how much heart and soul is behind it all, it's such a labour of love and it really shows. Heads up - if you visit once, you'll want to come back all the time!
I am so glad our family found this place. I selfishly want to keep it a secret. The eggs and produce are so fresh and tasty.
