A Peat Bog will maintain an area of 15x6x15 (X-Y-Z) with a 9x9 hollow center centered on the Peat Bog. It requires Bog Earth for operation and produces Dirt as waste. Dirt is automatically ejected into attached Transport Pipes or into adjacent chests. It needs to be powered by a BuildCraft Engine. Or any other source of MJ power. No longer available on the newest version of Forestry 2.3.1.1

Turbary can be used to harvest the peat.

One peat bog produces enough Peat to power 5 Peat-fired Engines.

A Peat Bog and an Arboretum work well together, as the Arboretum generates sand as a byproduct needed by the peat bog, while the peat bog generates surplus dirt the Arboretum needs in producing Humus. If you power your forestry machines with Peat-fired Engines, the Ash generated can also be used in creating Fertilizer for humus.
