"I really appreciate the thought put into how people can work with trees when we're not near them or not able to go outside. I have in my yard a hydrangea bush that was trained over time to be in tree form, and will be working to establish a proper relationship with it, but I've been at a loss as to how to work with other trees since they're either in neighbors' yards or are at parks that are... probably a reasonable walking distance for an able-bodied person, which I unfortunately would not be able to walk to without significant pain due to disability. The suggestion of a bonsai tree is absolutely brilliant and I'll be looking into how to raise one."

Do I need to have Irish ancestry to study here?
No, absolutely not. We provide authentic connection to Ireland, with native or naturalised Irish teachers, for anyone who wishes to learn from us and is willing to put in the time and effort to do this properly... rather than grab a culturally appropriated quick fix.
Do I need physical access to native Irish trees to take this course?
No - while the course is centred on the native trees of Ireland, you absolutely do not need to have physical access to them to benefit fully. The teachings are spiritual, cultural, and magical, and are designed to help you build connection from wherever you are in the world. You’ll learn how to recognise the essence of these trees, reflect on their presence in your ancestral memory or local landscape, and engage in meaningful practice even with non-native species nearby. This is about relationship, not location.

"This was a very interesting class, both for the history and practical information. I've made a plan to start connecting with the trees near my apartment building this weekend. I'm very excited for this and am so glad information on how to do this was a part of the class."
