Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays in July and August at 2pm.
Arrive at the farm at 2pm to join with a group for three and a half hours of fun and learning. There’s something for everyone from playing the bodhrán (traditional Irish drum) to blowing giant bubbles. You can gather sheep with the sheepdogs and milk a cow. Paint a masterpiece on the barn wall or find an egg in the hen-house. Take a hayride to the bog where you can appreciate the landscape, cut a few sods of turf or just jump in the bog for the pure joy of it! The delicious home-made scones will be ready when you come back or you are more than welcome to bring a picnic.

What To Wear
Generally – wear old clothes but if you intend to go bog jumping (this is EXTREMELY good fun) but everyone gets absolutely filthy! Wear your OLDEST clothes and shoes and bring a complete change of clothes and footwear (your second oldest!). We don’t have showers here … so an OLD towel is always a good idea.
The Weather
If the weather is bad…don’t worry at all – we have loads of indoor venues for activities andwe have had some of our best fun here running between the showers!

The Causey Farm Experience is a great example of Irish hospitality at its best and one of the great things to do with kids and teens in Dublin (located only 50 minutes drive from the city) during the Summer. This programme is suitable for all ages and nationalities and everyone gets a great hands-on experience of life on the farm and traditional Irish culture.
