As we developed our kitchen culture, we began to garden vegetables once again. We now have a productive Kitchen Garden and an additional farm field and at the height of summer 95% of the vegetables used in our Award Winning restaurant and Farm Shop are grown in our Gardens by Pat and the garden team. We are prolific, we do this using organic principles.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT PAT KEADY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePat grew up surrounded and immersed in nature not knowing the meaning of the word biodiversity but piecing together the web of life bit by bit, this early involvement shaped him as a person who understands the need to protect and promote nature in everything we do. This is a major part of why Pat became a grower,a journey that brought him to Cork to study sustainable horticulture, then on to run his own market garden in Connemara and now here in Killruddery growing chemical free vegetables. He is constantly trying to improve and learn new methods to grow healthy nutritious veg on a large scale, while protecting and promoting nature. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFAQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis workshop will take place from 10.00 - 16.00. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll materials are supplied. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLunch is provided. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease wear warm thick soled shoes, and dress to suit the days weather. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease allow yourself plenty of time to get here, park in our main customer car park and follow signs to Killruddery Flower Studio\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Killruddery House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54641936204099,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/9554\/0158\/files\/Pat.jpg?v=1765364876","url":"https:\/\/killruddery.com\/products\/workshop-grow-your-own-vegetables-with-killruddery-gardener-pat-keady","provider":"Killruddery House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
