The Care Farm Castlemartyr

The Care Farm in Castlemartyr is a small, child friendly farm that was set up by Claire Owers in 2012. The farm is a positive environment for children with extra needs as it provides them with opportunities to develop important skills while taking part in a wide range of fun and challenging farm based activities. Since its establishment, children with extra needs have been enjoying coming to the Care Farm for one-to- one tuition and social groups which incorporate principles of animal assisted therapy and horticultural therapy.
