[Boyne Grove Fruit Farm]

Stagrennan Farm is situated on the banks of the Boyne, just south of the medielval town of Drogheda. Straddling the counties of Meath and Louth, it is home to over 80 acres of apple trees, with bramleys accounting for bulk of the crop. Boyne Grove Fruit Farm's orchard operations are based around a minimum of interference with nature's way.

They have a weather station in their orchard to enable them to protect against disease. Instead of relying on broad based weather alerts, they have information about their own little microclimate. They also follow integrated pest management to allow natural predators do away with harmful pests. Their controlled atmosphere storage is among the most advanced in the country, allowing them to store their fruit better for longer, using the Ultra-Low Oxygen regime for fruit storage. They are also involved in the Bord Bia Horticultural Quality Assurance and have a HACCP system in place. Boyne Grove Fruit Farm's staff are fully trained in all areas relevant to their operations.

Their food production relies on the best and most natural ingredients. They use recyclable materials for all their packaging needs. Their bottles, lids, foil trays and cartons are fully recyclable. Stagrennan Farm provides a wonderful habitat for all sorts of wild animals and flowers to thrive. On a stroll around the farm, you're likely to encounter rabbits, hares, badgers, squirrels, foxes, pheasants, ducks, buzzards, cranes and many many more, as well as lots of different species of wildflower.
