Turf Reeks and Mountain Range
| Story |
Rural Ireland, particularly Mayo, is populated with numerous bogs from which the local farmers cut turf sods in the summer to heat their homes during winter months and to cook their food year-round. There are many stages in the ”harvesting” process from preparing the surface of the bog for cutting to carrying the turf home. In the final stages, the farmers stack the turf in long high reeks ready for transport. The sods on the top are arranged to protect the turf below from rain. |
