🌿 A Living Connection to Ireland: Plant a Tree Along the Wild Atlantic Way
Cloudforests operates several ecological restoration sites along Ireland’s Atlantic coastline — including in County Clare, County Kerry, and our newest gift-tree forest at Querrin on the Shannon Estuary.
These locations are not just scenic — they’re ecological hotspots where native woodland is being restored for biodiversity, wildlife, and future generations.
