For centuries turf or peat has been an integral part of Irish history and culture and it is used as a source of fuel to this day. Turf is harvested from areas that are known as the boglands; these areas of Ireland possess a rugged beauty that has inspired generations. Turf is a wonderful and unique product of the land that has evolved into a fine medium of artistic expression that enriches the links of our Celtic heritage and cultural identity.
