Tullamore Show 

 

 

We had alot of visitors to our Teagasc stand at this year’s Tullamore Show - it truly was an amazing success and probably the busiest we have ever been, with our water pump demonstration being of huge interest.
We received a lot of positive feedback from our visitors about our water quality themed display. It is great to see all the hard work rewarded with such positive feedback.
