Please join me in welcoming John Doherty to the Inishown Rivers Trust team. John joins us as our Agricultural Community Animator working under the Farming for Water EIP project. John originates from a traditional family farm in Malin Head. After earning a B.Sc. (Hons) in Sustainable Agriculture from Dundalk IT, he gained valuable experience working on farms across Ireland and New Zealand. He later returned home to assume responsibility for the family farm. In 2022, John took on the position of Project Manager for the Inishowen Uplands EIP, successfully leading the project to its completion in 2024. John is also a certified FAS advisor.
