About the company
The Merry Mill is a family-run organic farm and mill located in County Laois, Ireland.

Their products consistently test below 5ppm for gluten, so you can trust that you're getting the best quality foods.

Since 2017, The Merry Mill has been exporting to Israel as they are uniquely qualified to produce kosher oats from their single origin grain, certified organic and gluten free, grown in a quiet part of the world.
