The family, who does not want to be named, won €50,000 on a National Lottery scratch card this week.
As I understand it, the family bought the card in the town of Lanesboro in the south of the county.
According to the National Lottery, the family wants to use the money to buy a new tractor.
I for one cannot think of a better way of spending some winnings like that.
Head on over here to check out some of the expensive machinery the lucky family could get their hands on.
@eannahassett @NationalLottery We had a farm family from Longford today who won €50k on a scratch card and they are going to buy a new tractor with it!
