Bord Bia will host the first virtual Spring Trolley Fair, supporting the Irish Hardy Nurserystock Association (IHNSA) in conjunction with IFA. Kicking off 9 March at 9:30am, the marketplace event marks the start of the Irish Nursery season.

Tara McCarthy, CEO, Bord Bia – The Irish Food Board
Grace Binchy, insights and trends specialist, Bord Bia
Linda Walsh, director, Ipsos
