Forest Walk 2022 - Limerick

Teagasc in association with the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM) are organising a nationwide series of forest walks from 21 March to 1 April focusing on forest establishment and the management of young forests. At these events, forestry experts from Teagasc and the Department will explain why it is essential to plant trees and care for young forests.

This walk will take place on Thursday 31 March 2022 near Shanagolden, Co Limerick. Focus will be on the management of a young Sitka spruce/broadleaf mixed forest. We will discuss the establishment and initial maintenance leading to future management options including clearfell and continuous cover harvesting options.

Please note: this walk starts at 2pm. Please wear suitable clothing and footwear.

Upon registration, you will receive an email with meeting point details including an Eircode.
