Tykillen Farm is a small family-run farm on the bank of the River Slaney in County Wexford.
We farm lambs, bees, horses and trees.
Our online shop has beeswax produce.
Thanks so much for the amazing support.

Our Tykillen Beeswax Handsalve is made using calendula and comfrey-infused olive oil, tea tree and lavender essential oils, beeswax and vitamin E oil.
This is a multipurpose salve which will leave your skin feeling hydrated and soft. We find it particularly good for dry chapped skin and use it as winter hand cream.
Our handsalve comes in a 50ml tin which can be reused or recycled after use. If you keep your tin, we can refill it for you.
Ingredients: Beeswax, Calendula and comfrey infused olive oil, Tea Tree essential oil, lavender essential oil, Vitamin E oil.
We are a family farm, with three generations of us currently living and working on the farm.
All our products and packaging are palm oil, petroleum and plastic free.
We work with nature as much as possible on our farm. This includes:
Planting a forest in 2006 (13 acres of Ash, Oak, Beech, Scots Pine and Sycamore); limited fertiliser use and recently planting multi-species grass swards to further reduce our use of fertilisers; large areas of farm in permanent pasture; planting 1 hectare with wild flowers and corn to support birds and insects; planting a wildflower meadow; bird and bat boxes sited around the farm.
Established hedgerows form most of perimeters around our farm and between our fields.
We are members of Origin Green and the Bord Bia Sustainable Lamb Production Scheme and are participants in the GLAS (Green Low Carbon Agri-Environment) Scheme.
