Living Green provides eco-friendly soil solutions to farmers, horticulturalists and gardeners
Quigley’s Point on the Inishowen Peninsula in Co Donegal is home to the largest worm farm in Ireland and its certified organic worm cast compost, which is marketed under the Living Green brand, is sold B2B across Ireland and the UK.
“Innovation is at the heart of what we do, and we are the sole manufacturers of certified organic compost in Ireland,” says Crossan, who comes from a background in food technology and quality management with companies such as Kerry Foods and Wilde Seafoods. “For example, our compost materials utilise recycled and sustainable elements such as horse manure, spent mushroom compost, worm cast and composted materials.
Living Green employs six people, and Crossan says the business is fully committed to championing the circular economy. “This means minimising and repurposing waste so we use old worm boxes as fuel and feed bags for packaging which not only reduces the environmental impact but also contributes to cost savings and sustainability.
Living Green’s main market is B2B in Ireland with a small amount of business in the UK. “At this point we have become a trusted supplier within our industry, and now serve the needs of various businesses from agricultural enterprises to garden centres, community groups and hobby gardeners,” Crossan says.
