Based near Doon, Co. Limerick, Martin Crowe milks 190 cows across 140 hectares, running a busy, commercial dairy farm. But over the last five years, he’s made major changes, shifting from a system that “used every bit of ground and drove it hard” to one where climate and nature guide every decision. Encouraged by the curious questions of his five children, Martin has begun reshaping his approach, weaving biodiversity, water quality, and climate action into the norm of farm life.
