The Native Tree Area Scheme

There is huge interest in the Native Tree Area Scheme from both farmers and other landowners.  The scheme is available to both farmers and non-farmers and provides for an annual income of €2,284 per hectare for 10 years along with a grant to cover the cost of establishing the Native Tree Area. Many want to plant the trees and look after the woodland themselves.  To cater for this, we are producing a series of Native Tree Area advisory videos showing landowners how to plant and successfully maintain these new Native forests into the future.  This is the first video in our series, and we hope you enjoy it and find it informative.

TESTIMONIALS

What People Say About
Forestry Services Ltd

I planted some land in 1994. When I ran into some difficulties with the Department, I contacted Forestry Services Ltd even though they had not been involved in the initial planting. They helped me out and were a great help in getting the issues resolved. I now have my plantation of hardwoods thinned and all my payments are up to date. They charged for their time, but they were worth the money
Jack Ronan
As a part time farmer, I had little interest in forestry until I looked into the forestry scheme about 15 years ago. While hesitant at first, I planted the poorer land by engaging Forestry Services Ltd to secure the necessary approvals, and then to plant the lands and maintain the plantation for the first 4 years, which they completed for the grants available. The plantation is growing well, I have received my forest premium every year and am now planning the construction of forest roads and thinning the plantation. I am happy I made the correct decision and my only regret is that I haven’t got more forestry
Jimmy Kells
As a dairy farmer, I had little interest in forestry until I purchased land with milk quota in the mid-1990s. Both the milk quota and the forestry have proven good investments. I engaged Forestry Services Ltd to secure the necessary felling licences, construct forest roads and thin the plantations in 2008. The plantations have been second thinned and I am happy with the work that was done and the returns I received from the thinning. I am looking forward to the clearfell and my only regret is that I haven’t got more forestry
