Gaelic Woodland Project
We are a registered skill-sharing charity founded to create a commemorative woodland dedicated to Éire and the Irish Diaspora; and to protect forests from invasive species:
1. Creating Woodlands
We’re buying land now for a new native woodland to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Great Famine for 2045. All donors will be offered a 21-year licensed plot alongside the symbolic title of Caomhnóir na Coille Móire (Guardian of the Great Wood).
2. Protecting Woodlands
We’ve developed a non-mechanised approach to remove Cherry Laurel from our forests. We have turned this pervasive invasive shrub into a new FREE BIOFUEL. Our methodology is open-source; we hold regular training days to empower communities to save their local woodland.
