Westport Honey Farm is run by Dermot and Aaron O Flaherty who produce local honey from over 50 hives in apiaries on the foothills of Croagh Patrick to the lowlands around Clew Bay and the Wild Atlantic Way, each apiary on lands of local farmers each sympathetic to wildlife and nature in an area unspoilt over generations with small holdings with old meadows and ditches rich in blackberry, and wildflowers, and foothills covered with heather.
