Over 1,500 young saplings will be planted by the end of 2024 at Ballyearl Golf Course
Ballyearl Golf Course has received an early Christmas present with the planting of Irish native tree species on its grounds, thanks to a collaborative effort by 20 volunteers from The Conservation Volunteers and Northern Ireland Electricity Networks . Over 1,500 young saplings will be planted by the end of 2024 and will contribute towards Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council’s ambitious One Million Tree Programme.
Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey, Councillor Neil Kelly, expressed his support for the programme, saying: “These new trees will provide future habitats for a wide variety of wildlife, growing and thriving for decades to come. I’m pleased we are collaborating with TCV and NIEN to help achieve our One Million Tree target.
"Each year we launch a call for nominations of sites where we can plant trees and look forward to continuing this work with a broad range of partners in future.”
