Read about Ruth & Emma Young, who run a mixed organic farm in Co. Laois. The Youngs buy young cattle from other organic farmers & finish them at 24-26 months. Theyโve also started growing oats & remind people to look out for the EU organic logo

Gorgeous combos! Cooking with #mushrooms is so simple, the results so tasty.
Just saute them with cherry tomatoes, olive oil or butter, salt, pepper and your favourite herbs and spices!
And hey presto a healthy tasty sensation!
