33 new jobs for Leitrim with opening of organic restaurant

The idea began at Drumanilra Farm.

33 new jobs have been created at the country's first organic fast food drive-through restaurant in Leitrim.

Honestly, which is now open at the former KFC site in Carrick-on-Shannon hopes to promote organic food and sustainable farming.

The business is owned and operated by Justina and Liam Gavin who are known for their farm in Drumanilra near Lough Key.
