Want to get rooted in Ireland?

Friday, 19 Sep, 2008 0

Tourism Ireland reports that Holiday Ireland the travel resource, has joined forces with Rooted in Ireland for a ground-breaking green initiative where the company plants an Oak Tree in an idyllic location in County Armagh as part of a forest replantation project.

Initially, the scheme will plant a tree as a thank you to international tour operators for bringing their business to Ireland, however, in the future, visitors using Holiday Ireland will also have the opportunity to put down roots in the land of their ancestors.

Sites are planned for this eco-friendly scheme in the Republic of Ireland, too, and you can watch your personal tree grow from 3ft tall to green-leafed giants in the years to come.

Rooted in Ireland already offers people the opportunity to buy the gift of a living tree in Ireland, so if you know someone who would like to get back to their roots, then this is the perfect environmentally friendly way to do it, and up to 10% of the purchase price goes to Marie Curie Cancer Research, too.
