The Centre

At The Secret Garden we are passionate about the environment, and will try to give customers as many alternatives as possible for dealing with gardening problems.

We refuse to sell slug pellets apart from organic ones, which are safe for wildlife and pets, and sell a wide range of organic gardening products. We believe in organic gardening methods and look to support Irish biodiversity through wildlife friendly planting schemes and reduced use of herbicides and pesticides.

Our flock of free-range chickens and ducks, including Indian Runners, Khaki Campbells and Aylesbury, wander through the garden centre during the day and they are fantastic for searching out the slugs. For most of the year, the eggs are for sale in the shop.

We have a range of honey, jams and preserves, and home grown fruit and vegetables which are all produced locally. Honey bees are under serious threat and we hope to use our bee garden to educate people on the crisis affecting these crucial pollinators.

The T room is now completed and will be used as a classroom and is a very exciting development. As a way of supporting local artists and crafts people we will also have items for sale such as hand made jewellery, cards and many other items for you to enjoy. We have a range of freshly made yummy cakes and biscuits.

For gift ideas we have a range of preserves, wreaths, gardening gifts, vouchers and much more. Our new online gardening shop means you can view our products and drop hints to your loved ones for your desired gifts.
