    Called to the forest today Dec 1st to get my tree for the upcoming festive season. Although it was miserable whether-wise the lads there were very friendly and helpful and I came away with a fantastic tree. Got one there last year and when I took it down in January it was still as fresh as day one. Fo me I think it's well worth getting a good traceable tree froma renewable source.

    Sweet, came on here to find out if they were doing it again this year.
    Roughly what are they charging for a 6-7ft tree?

    Don't expect those in Garry Owen are coming from a renewable source. I'm an environmentalist at heart !

    They're purchased from Coillte and I assume that they replant trees.
