    Hello,

    are there any farms near Dublin (at a reasonable driving distance) where you can go and buy stuff (eggs, for example) directly from?

    Thanks

    There are loads of farms that are actually in Dublin. You don't have to travel to another county to find one. Most of North Co Dublin (north of the airport) is farm land. Are you looking for somewhere close to Dublin City, or just within the county of Dublin? I buy a lot of fruit at Keelings, near Swords. They have a big trailer parked at the front gate, where you can buy farm produce.

    Newbarn Farm is our go-to place, it's near Ashbourne.

    The food in the restaurant is really nice too :)

    Was just about to suggest Newbarn Farm too. Restaurant is lovely too if you want to stop for a bite to eat.

    The Waterfall Farm shop is now closed. I drove by it the other day and all signage is gone.
