Electric Picnic are inviting you to come and see a sacred fire being lit, a unique planting of a grove of native Irish trees – Oak, Ash, Yew, Holly, Rowan, Hawthorn, Hazel, all considered sacred in ancient Ireland. There is also a fund raising auction for the Woodland league, whereby the trees to be planted will be sponsored through bidding. A wish for each tree will go out to the four corners of Mother Earth for healing and hope for the future, radiated by the fire pit in the centre.
The trees are the guardians of the Earth. We are the guardians of the trees. It’s time to take guardianship of our environment back into the community. It’s time to embrace our trees, and encourage community tree planting to take responsibility for the effects of Climate Change into our own hands.
The tree auction will take place at artist wood sculptor Andrew St.Ledgers stall on Saturday at 7 pm in the Green crafts area, and the tree ceremony will happen at a site to be selected, on Sunday at 7pm.
