Paddy Farragher has being running an agricultural contracting business for over 52 years and he has being an agent for McGraths since the 1970’s delivering and spreading McGraths Grolime in many areas of south Mayo and north Galway.

“The farmers we deal with who spread McGraths Grolime find a significant improvement in their pasture. There are several key reasons for this- McGraths Grolime is a quality product which tests have shown improve fertilizer availability to the crop. It also improves the root structure of the plant, the drainage and aeration in a well limed soil is better due to more earthworm activity, but more importantly it is the unique fine texture of McGraths Grolime that contributes highly to positive results for farmers. I have working with McGraths over many decades and together we have delivered a prompt and reliable service and have built up a relationship and reputation with many satisfied customers.”

We have used McGrath’s for the past number of years and find their service and quality of product second to none, we would recommend McGrath’s Limestone to all our clients.

We're looking forward to the upcoming long weekend! See our Easter Opening hours below.
You don’t need to be a football player to know what a fantastic resource The Neale GAA club and pitch is in our parish for players of all ages from Cong, Cross and The Neale.

It’s fair to say that everyone has great memories associated with the pitch, from participating in training, summer camps or community games, to cheering on friends and family in their matches, and the more recent ‘Ireland Lights Up’ walks!

As the main sponsor of the club we were delighted to work in partnership with The Neale GAA team to help enhance this wonderful community amenity by giving the car park a new fresh look. 

On this project we completed all the drainage works and installed all light ducting for car park lighting in the future, marking out 90 car parking spaces ensuring that the pitch can be enjoyed for many more years to come!
