Love them or hate them, there's no denying that Brussels sprouts make for a growing business, especially for producer Paudie Hanafin and his wife, Mary, who operate out of their Ballygarron farm in the Spa.
Brussels sprouts boom in popularity at this time of year, Paudie estimates that each year, depending on the weather, his farm produces around 180 tonnes of sprouts.
Thankfully, with so many other areas affected by COVID, Paudie said business has continued to go well this year, something he attributes to people looking after themselves, and a rise in home-cooking during lock-down.
"There's obviously been a big rise in people cooking at home. The sale of vegetables went up. It's better that people are eating local vegetables, they can track the food back to us here and they can see how it goes from field to fork," he said.
