Neil Foulkes, most well known these days for his work in raising awareness of the value of Ireland's hedgerow, and now involved inthe HedgeLaying Assoc of Ireland, was also involved in 'the local project'.
As a skilled woodworker, Neil often requires native timbers and saw the immense value of having his own woodland of native irish trees.
The quotes are from the well known US writer 'Wendell Berry' who has written about community forests, please see the about page of www.ecoartnotebook.com for more info on Berry's writings.
