The new Irish Farmers Calendar has been released and it’s wonderful

And all for a good cause.

The new Irish Farmers Calendar is here. Now in its ninth year, the calendar showcases a selection of Irish farmers, to raise money for charity. It is continuing to support its nominated charity Bóthar, which sends livestock to the developing world. In previous years, the calendar attracted huge attention, even managing to get to the top of the Irish Calendar charts in 2015 and 2016, beating One Direction. It has also received orders from the US, Australia, UK, Germany, Brazil, France, Hong Kong and South Africa. The 2018 calendar features farmers from Cork, Kilkenny, Wexford, Tipperary, Roscommon, Derry and Dublin. They all appear topless, with some sharing the spotlight with either goats, hens, a French bulldog, sheep, rabbits, peacocks and pigs. So, without further ado, here are the lucky twelve farmers to make the calendar. January February March April May June July August September October November December
