Sligo L.E.T.S Organic Farm

I had a lovely day today with a unexpected visit to Sligo L.E.T.S Organic Farm Produce today. I had seen my friend Jacintha post a photo of the donkey and asked her where it was. She told me about L.E.T.S and I decided to pay a visit. They are located in Cleveragh near the sports centre.

They grow vegetables and herbs which are for sale to the public so when the growing season gets underway I’ll pop back and see what they have.

I met Gerry who has all kinds of beautiful birds. He did tell me the names of them all (well the breeds not the names!) but I have a head like a sieve and can’t remember any of them.

This is a baby pigeon! So sweet. To be honest I thought the pigeons were doves because they were white but it seems they aren’t. I really need to learn more about birds.

Gerry also has an aviary for the indoor birds. It was great to meet him and all the folks at the centre and they were telling me that anyone is welcome to call in. This really is a Sligo-secret…I must list it on my site.

Not only does Gerry breed birds he also breeds rabbits. They are so gorgeous! They are all very tame as well. Gerry will also take in injured birds, he has a turkey that was found in a playschool.

If you get a chance do pop in and see Gerry and the animals. If you have any spare wood he’d be grateful too as he’s making new hutches for the animals and all his work so far is paid for without any funding.
