Woodlands of Ireland has created a calendar of events featuring talks, walks, webinars, events, courses and training related to native woodlands for Ireland and Northern Ireland.

Calendar: https://www.woodlandsofireland.com/calendar/

Events are organised by other eNGO's, government and private companies with some events organised by ourselves. We are maintaining the calendar of events to better inform those interested in learning, training and working to conserve and establish more native woodlands in Ireland.

We also have an email newsletter which will be issued quarterly to better inform on Woodlands of Ireland activities. Find out more at the link below.
