4th
Year Agricultural Science
Students, along with their teacher, Ms. Colum visited Kearns Organic Farm in
Roosky, Co. Roscommon. Students got to see all types of organic fruit and
vegetables, including pumpkins and yellow beetroot. Students then visited the
newly re-vamped Mohill Mart, where the manager spoke to students. The class then
visited the South Leitrim branch of Teagasc in Mohill where they learned about
Teagasc’s function in the agricultural community. The final leg of the trip
saw a visit to Ashwood Veterinary Clinic where Paula Quinn gave an indepth
description of the workings of the clinic.
