Ballymaloe is famous as a teaching centre and also has a wonderful organic farm and formal gardens to explore. Hens and cockerels roam free and pigs root up the ground to their hearts content in their fields. School tours are provided with freshly made scones, biscuits and homemade lemonade before going for a trip around the fruit and kitchen gardens. Then you can find out all the uses of the herbs in their formal herb garden (where younger kids love to run around the box hedging).
Puzzle your way around the growing Celtic maze and marvel at the wonderful interior of the Shell house. Finally you will be brought through to the extensive glass house where you can see the organic vegetables that are grown for the cookery school, and pigs and cows in their fields. Open all year round but best visited in spring and summer.
