Show Notes

Turfcutting has long been a part of rural Ireland and people have used it to heat their homes for centuries. However, next week Minister for the Environment Eamon Ryan will publish draft proposals banning the commercial sale of turf, meaning you won’t be able to buy it online or in a retail setting. Jackie Flannery, from the Irish Rural Association joined us on The Hard Shoulder.
