Have a peek at our beautiful family farm located in the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains, and see what we’re all about!
And if you’d like to come with us on our journey as we diversify our farm and share it with others… follow us on social media!
Lose yourself in nature and find your creativity, as I help you handcraft your very own fine silver treasure to wear home, in our Jewellery Inspired by Nature workshop.
Four hours immersed in nature, away from the phone, the washing, the stresses of life… and you’ll leave with a relaxed mind and a one of a kind silver pendant… plus there`s cake!
Why not reconnect with your friends & family and book a private workshop! DM me for more details ☺️

It`s #biodiversityweek 💚 We`ve got a huge diversity of birds on the farm, from songbirds like robins, wrens and great tits, to birds of prey like red kite and buzzards. Our wetland brings in herons, ducks and snipe too!
We are passionately #farmingfornature by carefully managing our farm and hedgerows and leaving almost 1/4 of it completely to nature 💚 and this means lots of biodiversity!!

✨BEFORE vs AFTER✨
Our lovely flock got a new look for summer! The wonderful @ryan.conway03 sheared our girls thick fleece to help them stay cool, and we`ve got enough wool to felt a thousand mini sheep in our Felting with the Flock workshops 😁

💚 Sketchbook tour 💚
In honour of the 20th annual #nationaldrawingday here`s a peek inside one of Lucy`s sketchbooks, which she uses to record the passing seasons in our nature reserve throughout the year.
National drawing day is an initiative by the @nationalgalleryofireland which celebrates drawing and creativity in all it`s forms!
Drop me a 🎨 in the comments if you like to draw too!

💖 Happy Birthday Mousie! 💖 Our lovely Connemara filly Mousie turned 3 today!!!
Time has sure flown by fast… ➡️ Swipe to see her as a foal!
It`s a bittersweet birthday as she is now old enough to start to begin her life as a riding horse and we`ll be listing her for sale shortly.

Happy birthday to my beautiful boy Shadow 💙
As sweet as he is big, he`s never met a field he hasn`t tried to jump out of 🤣 He loves attention and apple turnovers, hates being tied up and waiting for his dinner, and is honestly the best horse I`ve ever had the pleasure of sitting on.

What a difference a year makes…
One year ago today we ran out first pilot workshop, from our kitchen table. Yesterday we welcomed our first corporate group from @meta
@lifeatmeta ❤️
In the past year we have built our craft studio, tested our workshops, launched our business, tried to learn the dark arts of marketing, social media and sales, and met some of the loveliest people along the way!
Today we are really emotional and very proud. There have been many challenges along the way, and more hours than I can count working at that kitchen table trying to overcome them… and we want to thank every single person who has helped and supported our business along this journey. Every like, comment, message, share and sale means more to us that you know!!
Xx Sophie & Lucy

I love that when we bring people out into nature, you can actually see that moment that their creativity is sparked.

✨5 benefits to spending some time in nature✨
Did you know that spending some time in nature is good for your health? In fact, doctors in some countries, like Japan, even *prescribe* time outdoors to their patients!
Time spent in nature is proven to:
🌿 Make you feel happier & reduce stress
🌿 Help you be more active
🌿 Improve your sleep
🌿 Boost your immune system
🌿 Increase your creativity & focus
This #earthday (Saturday 22nd April), why not take a few moments outside in nature?

Looking for a fun day out with a difference? Try our Felting with the Flock workshop!! 🐑
Not only do you get to snuggle our friendly flock of black sheep, you also get to make one to take home (which are far less messy in the house if you ask me)!! We use the wool from our very own flock of sheep to teach you how to needle felt and you`ll bring home your own mini sheep, plus there`s cake!!
Comment SHEEP below and I`ll send details of how to book!
Ps. We do hen parties and private group bookings too, just DM me 😉

My friend Andy helped us build this awesome new fire pit outside the studio last weekend! Our Art in the Wild participants over the next two weekends will get the honour of seasoning it in as we make willow charcoal and share a cuppa and some toasted marshmallows! Can`t wait!!

Happy 2nd Gotcha Day to my sweet boy Rocket ❤️ the most loyal, goofy and loveable dog ever!
#bordercollie #bordercolliesofinstagram windrushfarm
One animal you`re almost certain to see when you visit our farm is rabbits. We have soooo many wild rabbits! One day our farm is going to sink about 2 ft because we have so many rabbit burrows… the rabbits are tunnelling under absolutely everywhere. But when that day comes, I`m gonna watch this video and remember it was worth it ❤️
