Meade Farm, the Meath-based agribusiness specialising in the growing and packing of fresh produce, is celebrating winning two major honours at the Green Transformation Awards — the Food and Beverage Award and the Large Organisation Award — as well as being named Farming Family of the Year at the Family Business Awards 2025.
These national awards highlight Meade Farm’s leadership in sustainable agri-food production and its commitment to innovation, community, and family farming values across generations.

The Green Transformation Awards, which recognise organisations driving measurable environmental change, commended Meade Farm for its renewable energy initiatives, biodiversity projects, and social sustainability.
It also recently achieved Bord Bia Origin Green Gold Membership for outstanding performance across emissions, food waste/circular economy, biodiversity, and employee wellbeing.
Jeni Meade, sustainability manager, remarked: “We’re honoured to be recognised alongside other Irish businesses making meaningful progress on sustainability.
“From renewable energy to soil health and biodiversity corridors, our goal is to keep improving and to show that sustainable farming can go hand in hand with growth and innovation.”
At the Family Business Awards, the Meade family received the 2025 Farming Family of the Year Award, acknowledging their dedication to sustainable food production and the innovation required to achieve this.
The achievements come as Meade Farm also continues its community engagement locally, through initiatives such as the sponsorship of the Green Business of the Year Award at the upcoming Meath Business & Tourism Awards, celebrating sustainability leadership among businesses in County Meath.
Eleanor Meade, business operations manager, said: “These awards are a great way to recognise Irish businesses – not only what they produce or offer, but how they do it — with care for people, their communities, and the environment.
“Sustainability has always been at the heart of our work, so we’re delighted to be able to encourage and celebrate that commitment in other businesses.”
As Meade Farm celebrates these achievements, they remain focused on their mission to contribute to a more sustainable Irish food system.
