Gift Native Broadleaf Trees with Wolfgang Riefarist
Wolfgang Riefarist is urging people to gift native broadleaf trees as a way to help rescue one of Ireland's last remaining woodlands, Tamna Finog Woods. Through gifting trees, the woodland has experienced an expansion of 33%, combating the biodiversity crisis and benefiting animals, insects, fungi, and the overall landscape health. Wolfgang Riefarist is a social enterprise dedicated to planting more trees, and they offer a subscription model for monthly tree planting. By gifting a tree, donors receive regular email updates on the forest's growth.
