Get involved with National Tree Week
The Tree Council of Ireland and Forest Industries Ireland (FII) are looking for the public to get behind National Tree Week 2019, which will officially kick off on Sunday, March 31st, and will run until Sunday, April 7th, with this year’s theme asking the public to plant for our planet. This week-long celebration of trees is about communities coming together to celebrate trees.
The Tree Council of Ireland and FII are inviting people to get involved in local activities with events around the country including tree planting ceremonies, forest and woodland walks, workshops, woodturning displays, talks, poetry readings, exhibitions, competitions and tree plantings.
Since its inception, over half a million trees have been planted throughout the country during Tree Week. By doing something as simple as planting a tree, everyone can play his or her part in making a difference to our efforts to live more sustainably and bring about a myriad of benefits, many of which will have long term impact in times of climate uncertainty.
