Kintaline Plant and Poultry Centre
A warm welcome awaits at our small Highland farm on the shore overlooking the mountains of Argyll: |

The poultry and waterfowl park is closed for the winter, we are moving the birds out to the fields, so we can work on the pens and other parts of the farm.
Thank you to all the wonderful visitors we have had this year, and so many lovely comments.
"That was one of the nicest places we have visited in a long time"
"This is just heaven, thank you."
try some of our great eggs from our free roaming hens for your breakfast, our girls are acclaimed for their wonderful egg making recipe, the mixed herb rich grazing that they have free access to means that the taste of their eggs has to be tried. More seasonal but just as delicious are the duck eggs.
For the gardeners we have a hardy plant nursery and covered area for you to browse amongst quality young plants we grow in our nursery.Our range is extensive and eclectic : grasses, rhododendrons, heathers, alpines, perennials, herbs, trees, roses, planters, bulbs
We have a shop that we have filled with goodies - of course our eggs; books; magazines; and cards and, of course, an ever growing selelction of poultry equipment and feed for all your animals.
We are really delighted to spend time helping you with your plans to keep birds in your garden, allotment, or smallholding, or plan the next part of your garden, but we are now hosting the Local Producers Market every First and Third Thursday of the month so on those days come and enjoy yourselves with all the great food, arts, crafts and much more, but you will see little of us as we will be just SO busy.
We are always happy to help anyone work out the best housing and husbandry systems for their birds, or help with ideas for your garden, please get in touch if you are making a special journey in the winter as we may be busy around the farm.
