November 2018

Leap years, Olympic Games and the World Cup. Each of these things only happen once every 4 years.

A lot can change in this time period, and since filming ‘Westbound & Down’ in 2014, the same can be said for GRASSMEN and this got us thinking about the men first seen in that DVD…Armed with our new truck and a Demo 630 Krone we wanted to call back and revisit Killen Bros and McConaghy contracts to see how things have changed for them - we also introduce you to one of Northern Irelands largest agricultural contractors, Wallace Contracts, and speak with Glynn during a busy maize season. Hard work and dedication to the customer is the key message coming from all these contractors in this DVD.

The outro song of our DVD 'Keep 'er Lit', the first in a two part series featuring Luke Furse!

This DVD was the first time we filmed outside of Ireland and was a change in style from the previous DVDs.

'Keep 'er Lit' was the first DVD that brought us out of Ireland as we went to Devon to film with Luke Furse. It's the first in a 2 part series, followed by 'Sustain The Flame'.

It also moved away from the format of the previous DVDs where we followed 3 contractors at silage and brought something a little different.

Enjoy this clip from 'Keep 'er Lit' as Lloyd Furse moves their CAT bulldozer with their Volvo FH16 660!

Tim Lowden, High Horsepower Product Specialist at New Holland, gives us a closer look at the T6.175 Dynamic Command; the 'Swiss Army Knife' of tractors...

Back in October we officially opened our new shop in the Tower Centre, Ballymena with special guest, Marty Mone!

We had a quick chat with Gethin from Johnston Gilpin & Co Ltd. about their upcoming 50th Anniversary Showcase Event at the Eikon Exhibition Centre in Lisburn on 14th & 15th November.

Another section from 'Fulla the Pipe' with scenic views overlooking Belfast.

In this episode we give Jonny Bleakly (JB Bodyworks) a spin in the GRASSMEN Krone BiG X 630. Jonny has worked on restoring a number of machines in the GRASSMEN fleet.

He's also a dairy farmer who usually puts in grass with a 16 year old Claas 900. How did he get on in the 630? #AGRIisourCULTRE grassmen.com

Our first DVD, 'It's in the blood...' is now available to stream and download for only £5!

Many of you have requested this DVD so we've decided to offer it online as it is discontinued in DVD format.

Our second DVD was 'Fulla the Pipe'. Who has it in their collection?

This has to be one of our favourite sections from this DVD!
