The Green Island

"Rain clouds race toward Ireland’s shores on westerly winds from the Atlantic Ocean.
Clouds with water, pure and unpolluted, to an island warmed by the Gulf Stream.
Making landfall, the rain falls lightly on mountain, valley and plain, revitalising pastures old and new.
And so all is lush and green .........Ireland, the Green Island."

Ireland is an island on the edge of Northern Europe, featuring coastal mountains and fertile interior plains. Ireland is known by many names, each one inspired by facets of its culture, history and natural beauty. Through many of these names runs a common theme - this is the island of forty shades of green, the world's greenest dairyland.

  • On Europe's Atlantic outpost the rains that fall are the cleanest in the world.
  • The grass that grows here is sweet and rich in nutrition.
  • The warming influence of the Gulf Stream allows Kerrygold's dairy herds the freedom
    to graze on fresh pastures practically all year round.

This is Kerrygold land. An unpolluted environment where dairy farmers practice a husbandry honed for over three thousand years. Kerrygold is a product of these elements, deeply embedded in Ireland's traditions and rooted in its history.
