In 2021, the brothers launched an online fitness business following their own experiences with grief and the challenges of farming. The Farm Safe Farm Well series, produced by Agriland Media in conjunction with AXA Insurance, is funded by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM).
In the fourth part of Agriland Media’s new series, Farm Safe, Farm Well, we explore the dangers posed by working at heights on farms.

Eddie Downey, former IFA president, told Agriland about falling 12ft while working on his farm in Co. Meath in 2021.
