On this week's Today with Adrianne Murphy, Brian Smyth, who is the National Project Manager with Social Farming Ireland explains what social farming is, and how farmers (or potential participants) can get involved.

Social Farming Ireland offers people, all over Ireland, who are mentally, socially, physically, or intellectually challenged, the opportunity to spend time on a family farm in a healthy, supportive and inclusive environment.
