Members get regular behind-the-scenes updates from the GIY farm at Curraghmore - the real-life story behind Our Farm – A GIY Story.

You’ll see what’s growing, what’s working, what’s failing and what we’re learning about producing food in Ireland.


OUR FOOD SYSTEM IS BROKEN

Most of us feel it - but we’re not always sure what to do about it.

The GROW Circle is for people who want to take back some control of their food.

Not by being perfect - but by doing small things that matter:

  • Growing a little food
  • Cooking more from scratch
  • Supporting better food systems

If you've watched Our Farm - A GIY Story, listened to the Food Matters Podcast, or followed GIY for a while - this is where the journey goes deeper.


When you join the GROW Circle you become part of a community that:

  • Is learning to grow some of its own food
  • Is making better everyday food choices
  • Is helping shift the food system toward soil, health and real food

By becoming a GIYer you’re also helping support GIY’s education work at GROW HQ and the GIY farm, helping more people reconnect with real food.

Your membership helps fund education, growing programmes and food literacy initiatives that reach thousands of people each year.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
