An Tairseach Ecology Centre in Wicklow is a 70-acre haven dedicated to sustainable living and ecological education. Founded in the 1990s by Dominican Sisters, the land was transformed from conventional farming to a certified organic farm by 2006. Today, it thrives with organic vegetables, beef, and pork, alongside a wildlife conservation area and an ecological education centre. The centre offers courses, retreats, and workshops that emphasize the interconnectedness of humans and nature, aiming to raise awareness of our place within the web of life.
Visitors can explore the organic farm shop, which sells fresh produce, meats, and eco-friendly products. The centre also provides accommodation, meeting rooms, and hosts various events and sabbaticals. An Tairseach values truth, fairness, respect for all life, and beauty in all its dimensions. Their mission is to manage the farm and centre towards economic, social, and environmental sustainability, creating awareness of good ecological practices for all who engage with the centre.

2 years agoBeautiful place, the owners were very kind and helpful, they gave us a tour of the farm to meet the cows and calves. Excellent cheeses. Honorable mention to the dog Rosco who will accompany you on the tour and will ask you to leave the stones for him. Recommended!!!
