About Kehoe Farming

Our Farming Year – Kehoe Farming, Wexford

At Kehoe Farming, work continues all year round, shaped by the Irish weather and the rich soils of South Wexford near Foulksmills.

🌱 Spring – Preparing for Growth

Spring is a crucial time on the farm. As the days grow longer, we prepare the land for the growing season.

• Ploughing & Cultivating stubbles
• Fertilising meadows
• Preparing seedbeds

Timing is key—we work quickly during dry weather windows.

☀️ Early Summer – Growth & Grass Harvest

The main event of early summer is haylage and silage production.

• First cut of grass
• Correct moisture levels
• High-quality horse feed production

Modern machinery helps, but weather still controls everything.

🌾 Late Summer & Autumn – Harvest Season

This is our busiest period.

• Harvesting wheat, barley & rape
• Collecting straw for bedding
• Long days and late nights

Straw is later processed into clean bedding like KosiBed.

🌽 Maize Harvest

Maize harvesting is another key part of our seasonal cycle.

🍂 Late Autumn & Winter – Preparing for Next Year

As the season ends, we prepare for the next:

• Reseeding grass leys
• Ploughing fields
• Maintaining machinery
