Hit The English Market for Cork-grown organic Brussels sprouts this Christmas

By Yay Cork December 20, 2024December 20, 2024

You either love ’em or you hate ’em.

But for those of us who can’t envision a Christmas dinner without a sprout or two, theres one spot that specialises in growing the most perfect Brussels on Leeside.

Cork’s Rooftop Farm is fully stocked with Cork-grown, organic Brussels sprouts this year, all waiting for you in The English Market at €5 for a large stem.

The booming urban farm business, run by Brian McCarthy, sells everything you need for a truly local Christmas feast at their large stall previously occupied by Tim O’Sullivan Meats in the centre of the busy market.

Forget about those bland, store-bought Brussels sprouts – we’re talking about the finest, Cork-grown organic sprouts that will take your festive feasts to a whole new level.

Grown with care, harvested with passion, and delivered straight from farm to table, these little green gems are a must-have for anyone serious about celebrating Christmas the right way.

“Bring out their natural sweetness by roasting with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt for an irresistible side. Not just for Christmas!” say the Farm crew.

Cork chefs and cooks including Lilly Higgins have been down to nab theirs already so get them in the bag before they’re gone.
