Over 600,000 native trees to be planted on unused bogland
More than 600,000 native trees are to be planted across 1,500 hectares of bogland that is no longer used for peat production.
The woodland project announced today will focus on growing a mix of native Irish trees such as downy birch, scots pine, alder and other broadleaves like hazel and holly, on Bord na Móna land in Offaly, Laois, Westmeath and Tipperary over the next three years.
