Small Pocket Forest

Cloontuskert Pocket Forest

Cloontuskert, Co. Roscommon

A Pocket Forest is a small area of densely planted native trees, shrubs and ground cover. Our aim is to bring a forest ecosystem to the heart of towns and cities. Pocket Forests co-create healthy biodiverse spaces in urban areas which can help alleviate several growing problems: flooding, drought, biodiversity loss and the wellbeing of deprived urban communities. Through learning-while-doing workshops we aim to help people to feel like they belong in shared green spaces and can be part of a community of neighbours who enjoy the benefits of connecting with nature on their doorsteps.

A large Pocket Forest is planted in an area of 25square metres (5mx5m). We plant 75 native trees and shrubs using at least 12 different species.

The Pocket Forests team of Amy, Ashe and Catherine will lead the workshops to engage residents in co-creating the shared green amenities. Another aim is to improve residents well-being, sense of community and stewardship of shared areas and feel a part of the climate crisis solution.

We were delighted to complete the full planting of Cloontuskert's very own Pocket Forest at the end of March in which we planted almost 1000 trees Miyawaki style and in native hedging in our small rural village. The trees planted were a variety of native Irish trees which we received from Reforest Nation, an amazing social enterprise who we are so lucky to have partnered with. We would like to thank Gearóid McEvoy and the team at Reforest Nation for giving us the opportunity to bring native to Cloontuskert. Hannah Mole, based close to Cloontuskert in Strokestown Co. Roscommon, with Earthcare Permaculture Design was also a tremendous help to us in the project who we'd also like to say a huge thank you to also.
