It is disheartening to observe that it has become normal for many tree-planting groups in Ireland, often subsidiaries of larger corporations, to charge exorbitant fees of €25, €85, or even over €100 to plant a single tree. Remarkably, these are the same trees that might only cost €1 to acquire from the same nurseries we use. We strongly oppose this apparent exploitation of goodwill.

At Reforest Nation, we maintain a fair average cost of just €1.99 per tree planted, ensuring you can make the most significant impact possible.

Reforest Nation proudly leads the way in Ireland’s tree planting sector, setting the benchmark with our commitment to exclusively planting certified native Irish species. We offer robust, two-year-old specimens, sourced within Ireland, ranging from 50cm to towering over 2 meters—ensuring they are hardy, adaptable, and ready to contribute to the environment from day one.

Boasting a diverse array of up to 27 different native species, our initiative plants the widest variety in Ireland, cultivating forests rich in quality and biodiversity. Our lean and effective operations cut superfluous costs, permitting us to provide these quality trees at prices without equal. This approach democratises sustainability and underscores our unwavering pledge to nurturing the environment.

Additionally, Reforest Nation is at the forefront of innovative forestry with the introduction of the Miyawaki Method to Ireland. This cutting-edge technique boosts forest growth by an impressive 10X, increases carbon absorption by 10X, and amplifies biodiversity by a remarkable 100X compared to traditionally planted forests.

With the significant milestone of planting one million trees through our initiatives, Reforest Nation is propelled by grand ambitions to reshape landscapes on both a local and global scale. This achievement is a historic first for an Irish tree planting initiative, accomplished in a remarkably short period.

Building on this success, our next ambitious goal is to plant ten million trees by 2030. This commitment offers individuals like you a unique opportunity to be part of a movement that’s not just participating, but actively shaping a greener future for our planet

Our commitment extends beyond Ireland’s lush landscapes. For every tree we plant locally, we also support the planting of a mangrove in Madagascar, one of Africa’s critical biodiversity hotspots. These mangroves are essential for biodiversity and can absorb up to ten times more carbon than typical Irish trees, significantly boosting our climate change mitigation efforts.

Additionally, our initiatives offer more than environmental benefits, providing vital socio-economic support to local communities, particularly through the employment of women. This helps in alleviating poverty and creating sustainable income sources, while also tackling desertification, soil erosion, and improving food and water security. Through these comprehensive efforts, we’re not just planting trees—we’re nurturing healthier ecosystems and empowering communities globally, creating profound and lasting impacts.

At Reforest Nation, we are setting a new standard for transparency in Irish three planting intiatives. With interactive maps that clearly show where our trees are planted and comprehensive annual progress reports. We also offer a unique opportunity for our supporters to visit these sites, see the trees they have helped grow, and even participate in the planting process. This approach not only promotes transparency but also deepens your personal connection to our shared environmental goals.
