About Macra na Feirme
Macra na Feirme was established in 1944 as Ireland's young farmer and rural youth organisation. Macra na Feirme is a voluntary organisation for rural young people aged between 17 and 35. The organisation has a nationwide network of 200 clubs with almost 9,000 young members. The mission of Macra na Feirme is to contribute to the sustainable development of rural communities in Ireland by supporting the social, economic, cultural, personal development and well-being of young people who have a rural connection including young farmers, by representing their interests in the development and implementation of relevant policies, programs and services at national, regional and local levels and by advocating on their behalf. The vision for Macra na Feirme is of a member-led organization which is recognised by young people, decision-makers and society in general as a key resource for rural young people including young farmers and as their authentic voice; which provides a sense of belonging to an extensive and committed membership; and which is actively supported in fulfilling its mission by both the state and civil society.
