    I think an ibc tank with the top off would be ideal for drawing the turf in a wet bog like that. Easier and faster than filling a plastic bag one handed instead of two into an IBC. You could even use the winch in the worst parts.

      Was thinking of making some sort of sled like with a old bonnet or sheet to bring it out but luckily just dry enough to travel

    could you not have put the turf into the quad trailer with putting it into the fert bags ?

    • @Canningfarms
      @Canningfarms  2 місяці тому

      Would usually but we keep them in fert bags and had to transfer to bigger trailer easier in the bags

    You picked two of the worst jobs to promote farming. I feel your pain, the bog is a tough day

    In the honor of jaysus will you stop giving out about the bog and turf.
    You should be encouraging more people out into the bog so the government get annoyed with us.
    I do enjoy the bog,I have to admit. A place of tranquility and reflection all while providing warmth for the winter.
    Serious job on the ragworth Gavin,I've noticed the past two years it's gotten very wide spread.
