 This project primarily involved the establishment and subsequent development and marketing of a Farmers market in the Newry and Dundalk area on a cross border and regional basis. The project established a farming network/cluster with the aim of providing a forum whereby farmers could share information on best practice and improve local farming processes and practices.
An objective of this project was to strengthen the local agri-food and craft sector to make it more nationally competitive and sustainable long-term and to explore and develop new market opportunities for the agri-food and craft sectors. This project contributed to the breaking down of barriers which often limits development within the agri-food/craft sector and encouraged cross border linkages in the agri-food and craft sectors.
