# Bluebell Falls

Bluebell Falls is an organic goat cheese company in County Cork, Ireland.

## History

Bluebell Falls farm is owned by the O'Sullivan family and registered and approved as a Food Business operator. Before 1995, the farm was primarily geared towards the traditional Irish herds of cattle and sheep but at that time, started to develop new products from goat's milk. By 2008, they had a herd of 130 goats being milked. By 2011, the decision was made to switch totally to producing goats milk and cheese. The farm is located at Charleville, County Cork overlooking the Ballyhoura mountains.
