Lunches at the Farm

Welcome to Brown’s Cheese Tasting Room

We have recently opened up the farm to cheese and wine lunches. Please join us for a relaxed lunch of our all natural cheeses. We accompany the tasting with a variety of homemade breads, jams and chutneys and salads that are all homegrown using biodynamic and organic farming methods.

Bookings for this intimate experience are by appointment only. Email: reservations@brownscheese.com to book a date or call 0727 103350

The afternoon’s activies:

  1. Most groups arrive between 12:00-12:30
  2. Upon arrival you are served homemade lemonade, herbal iced tea, beer and wine. We do not encourage sodas as we feel it takes away from visiting the farm. You are also given some hors d’oeuvres.
