    Con Traas 2019, Part 2, The Apple Farm Tipperary

    Peter Donegan returns to chats with Con Traas' Apple Farm in Tipperary. It is an apple farm. But it's also a lot more than just an apple farm.  It's worth noting maybe that Peter was on holidays working whist camping, again; surrounded by all that the fruit farm has to offer. The old buddies chat practices that were then acceptable, what is done now, changes in presentation over the eons and just what the supermarket will want to see and what is logic in growing and being responsible.  Subscribe to The Sodshow in iTunes, all good podcast stores and via www.sodshow.com Show Links: The Apple Farm Website: www.theapplefarm.com Con Traas on Twitter: @theapplefarmer The Apple Farm on Facebook: The Apple Farm Further information: Twitter: @sodshow facebook: The Sodshow instagram: sodshow
