About:
We’re thrilled to announce our biggest giveaway yet! Reforest Nation is gifting 10,000 native trees to individuals across Ireland who are ready to make a positive impact by rewilding their land or garden.
Every participant will receive a minimum of one bag containing 100 native saplings, allowing you to create your very own pocket of biodiversity.
Choose from four stunning species, each vital to Ireland’s natural heritage:
• Irish Oak – The king of the forest, supporting hundreds of species.
• Native Scot’s Pine – A majestic evergreen, perfect for wildlife.
• Wild Cherry – Bursting with blossoms in spring and berries in autumn.
• Rowan – The mountain ash, a symbol of protection and beauty.
There will also be a Tree Planting Day at the location of the giveaway and we would be thrilled if you could join us for it. This is your chance to practice planting techniques and learn how to give your new trees the best start, while also contributing to the creation of the Guru Nanak Freedom Forest under the stunning Sugar Loaf Mountain in Greystones, Co. Wicklow. After a rewarding day of planting together, you’ll collect your bag of trees to take home.
Conditions for Tree Collection
When you arrive – whether it’s first for the complimentary tree planting day, or directly for the tree giveaway – simply approach a member of the Reforest Nation team. They’ll be easy to spot in their signature rusty red hoodies.
Once you meet one of our team members, give them your name (as provided during registration). From there, we’ll confirm the number of trees you’ve registered for and hand over your trees.
It’s as simple as that – and we’ll be there to assist you every step of the way!
Location and Parking:
Hawthorn hill (A63 H364), Ballydonagh Lane, Delgany, Greystones, Co. Wicklow.
We advise parking at Kindlestown Wood and proceeding the 3 minute walk on foot up Ballydonagh Lane. After passing the third house, look for a wooden entrance on your left, marked by a yellow sign saying ‘TREE PLANTING,’ then follow the yellow arrows that will guide you directly to the planting site. In the event that Kindlestown Wood's parking is at capacity, additional parking may be available at Hawthorn Hill property (A63 H364) and further up the laneway. For the most pleasant driving experience, we recommend approaching Ballydonagh Lane from its eastern end, near Greystones, as the lane's western portion is more rugged.
