On the activity, which is a brilliant thing to do to amuse the kids (6+) even on a bad weather day, you will tour our farm, and learn about the farming process from seed to plate, you will get to see the team working on the farm whether it be grading, packing, or turning bags in the bay. Once we have taken you through the whole process, we demonstrate how to shuck an oyster and if you’re feeling adventurous you can shuck your own oyster! The first oyster is an explosion of taste, as your pallet adjusts with the second and third, you will taste the true flavour, which has been described as sweet, having creamy notes with a touch of earthiness. This is a multisensory, authentic experience delivered in a magnificent setting at the foot of the Connemara National Park and 15 minutes’ drive from Kylemore Abbey.
