Plot-Share in Kildare: What to Know

Private tip: The Curragh Plain and Kildare's flat agricultural land offer excellent growing conditions with good sun exposure. Many horse farms in the Kildare stud country have unused paddock sections that can make excellent growing plots with good drainage.

Homegrown is bringing together growers and potential hosts across Kildare. Registering helps show where local growing space is most needed.

What Grows Well in Kildare

Kildare's flat plains get good summer sun but can be exposed to westerly winds — shelter is important. Root vegetables, brassicas, onions, and legumes do particularly well. The county's improved grassland soils are very fertile once turned over.

For a month-by-month guide to what to plant in Ireland's oceanic climate, see our Irish Grow Calendar.
