Stripping grass before we dig a French drain along the upper field to catch water entering from the road side. Soil is anaerobic and smells of rotten eggs. We bury blue poly pipe covering it with gravel. Using the digger and dumper we strip/clear the grass sod and stock pile it. We burying blue water pipe among the drainage pipe which will later become a water tap at upper field gate. Using the digger we tidy up the edges of the field and create burn piles from the hedging left after hedge cutting in Feb
I want to build an off-grid homestead in Northern Ireland where I will grow and feed my family with chemical free and full of nutrients-packed food on a daily basis. I want to create a healthy lifestyle that my three kids will look back on fondly and to a place they will eventually call home.
My history.
I have a level 3 cert in sports turf horticulture from where I started my work as a greenkeeper working on golf courses. I have spent alot of my working career both around and driving different types of construction machinery. I have also learnt a thing or two working with plenty of highly skilled trades men. This accompanied with my own skill set, creativity, resourcefulness and efficient approach will aid me in turning this 4.25 acres of unused land into the most fertile landscape in the area, using regenerative and holistic farming methods to grow my own meat and veg.

Trevor’s got a nice touch with that machine. I’d probably have that gravel dumped everywhere except where you’d want it. 👍
