We are so sad about the passing of Andrew St.Ledger of @woodlandleague. He inspired and taught us so much and he is gone far too soon. We will do our best to continue the work. Here he is, showing us the way. 🌳 RIP 🌳
Check out this RTE archive from 1992 about Tomnafinnoge Woods. Over 500 acres of oak were felled in the 80s in the area. We are replanting native Irish trees, including oak, slowly but surely!

Industrial monoculture plantations do NOT help stabilise the climate, in fact they do the direct opposite.
The truth is they're a disaster, not only for the climate, but also for nature and local communities.
Please stop with the lies, @coilltenews; we need more REAL forests.
Thread: Ancient Woodland is a scientific definition meaning a site which has always been wooded since 1600AD. There are less than 100 in Ireland. This National Tree Week here’s an account of these woods & threats to their survival.
Check out the deadly new episode of @irishhistory - it's all about the history of forests. Fin came down to Reforest to meet us for this episode too! 🌳🌳🌳
#treeweek2022
Its #nationaltreeweek. In this #podcast sponsored by @WGReforest, I look at the human #history of forests
From the arrival of the first farmers to the Norman Invasion, humans have had a profound impact on the way we relate to our woodlands🌳#treeweek2022

@EcoplanForestry Hey there. We are applying for grants but there are big waiting lists so we haven't gotten anywhere with it yet. We are hoping to get some in the future!
So what this means is that ancient Irish Oak DNA is spreading across the hills of Wicklow once more. So if you want to support us, why not go green this Christmas? Gift trees not things, it'll take you 3 minutes to gift a tree on https://t.co/FGnvIST7rK !
