One brand for everything a family farm does.
Ballinafagh Farm grows crops, plants forest, sells no-till drills and now sells firewood. We gave all of it one identity, then carried it through a new website, a Shopify store and their social channels.

A farm with a lot of stories to tell.
Ballinafagh Farm is a family tillage farm in Prosperous, Co. Kildare, run by Tom Tierney with his daughter Erin.
There’s a lot going on. Since 2000 they’ve grown continuous cover forestry on about a sixth of the farm. They switched to no-till in 2014 and now sell Duncan Ag drills in Ireland and the UK. Another 7% of the land is set aside for nature, and in 2025 Tom won the biodiversity category of the Teagasc FBD Environmental Sustainability Awards.
Then there’s Erin, a nurse who is coming home to the family farm and sharing it on TikTok, and a new firewood business that sells thinnings from their own woodland.
All that work deserved a brand that could carry it, and places online where people could find it, understand it and buy from it.
The full sweep, start to finish.
-
01
Brand identity
A wordmark and oak-tree mark with roots in the land, a palette taken from the farm itself, and a firewood sub-brand that clearly belongs to the same family.
-
02
Farm website
One site for the whole farm: conservation agriculture, forestry, the Duncan Ag dealership, Erin’s journey, the team, a blog and directions to the farm gate.
-
03
Firewood store
A custom Shopify store for one product, done properly, that tells the provenance story and lets people order for collection or delivery.
-
04
Social media
The brand carried across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and LinkedIn, so the farm looks and sounds the same wherever people find it.
Rooted in the land.
An old oak for the farm’s long view, set beside a confident serif wordmark. The firewood brand shares the same mark, so the two businesses read as one family.
Set in Tiller for headings and Assistant for body text. The farm site and the store share a single set of brand tokens, so a colour change in one place updates both.
ballinafaghfarm.ie
A home for the whole farm. It opens on the land, then leads visitors to whatever brought them there: the conservation story, a new seed drill, firewood, or a visit to the farm.
- Award news and video front and centre
- Duncan Ag dealership with its own enquiry path
- Firewood for sale right on the homepage, linked to the store
- Erin’s journey, the team and the blog
Ballinafagh Firewood
One product, done properly. Rather than a generic shop, the store sells the provenance: hardwood thinned from the farm’s own forest, cut and split on the same ground, by people you can go and meet.
- Custom Shopify theme in the farm’s brand
- Provenance and sustainability told on the page
- Collection from the farm or delivery
- WhatsApp and email for quick questions
The same farm, everywhere.
We brought the farm’s social channels into the brand, so a customer who first sees the farm on TikTok sees the same farm when they arrive at the website or the store.
Good branding tells the truth. This one had plenty.
- 2000
- The year the forest was planted. Today it covers about 17% of the farm as continuous cover forestry.
