"Carlow in general is being promoted more and more and we have so many brilliant food and drink producers in the county so it's great that we can spread the word around."

"We'll be inviting people on short farm tours and for a tasting of our delicious escargot. I think they are very tasty and very nutritious, escargot meat contains nearly all the amino acids needed in the body, they're very high in protein and low in fat."
