The Tipperary Food Producers, a network of Tipperary’s artisan food and beverage producers established in 2008. They have announced details of a Summer Food Tour series in conjunction with Tipperary Tourism. This will see producers open their doors to the public offering a unique insight into the creation of their products.

The initiative will allow locals and tourists to visit the homes and farms of some of Tipperary’s finest food producers. Visitors will experience the day to day life of a food producer and the processes involved in creating quality artisan food and drink produce.

Tours

Seven producers will open their doors to the public throughout the summer months for individual or group tours in line with Covid-19 regulations. The insightful tours will cover everything from beekeeping to cheese making, and of course, tasting some of the delicious products too in their beautiful settings nestled throughout the Premier county.
