People powered reforestation with Eoghan Connaughton

In this episode we speak with Eoghan Connaughton from the Gaelic Woodland Project.  

Eoghan is a Masters student of Environmental Science researching fungi as a bioherbicide. He is also a post graduate of environmental protection and founder of the Gaelic Woodland Project: a charity run by volunteers who share a desire to heal the wounds of history through empowerment, stewardship and gardening.

• And more…
