Forgive the ignorance but what is turf mould? I live in Clones which has a lot of bog area and continuous rain... so might be able to talk to a farmer nicely to get some, as long as you are not sendinng me off asking for a left handed screwdriver...
1000 litres in 4 years my husband would be Happy.

Thanks Kilk,

hi Summersun, i like your name... brings back memories!

turf mould is the small bits of turf and dust thats left over after you use up the turf in shed or rick.
you could ask any person for the remainder of their old turf.
or if the weather was fine you would find mould on the bog where the turf had been loaded onto a trailer to bring home.. best ask permission first tho.
you may be tempted to bring wet mould with you thinking it will dry at home, and its a strange thing but it never does!
hope this is of some help to you.

regards
