‘Tuath Blossoms’ - Tuath Housing plants nearly 300 trees in the northeast region

This winter, Tuath Housing Association proudly launched the Tuath Blossoms Initiative in the Northeast of Ireland, transforming communal green spaces across Dundalk, Drogheda, and Navan.

The project focused on planting a diverse array of indigenous plants, shrubs, and over 60 trees across six developments:

• Cois Cuain, Dundalk
• Church Street Apartments, Dundalk
• The Demesne, Dundalk
• Liscorrie, Drogheda
• Castleguard, Ardee
• Dunville,Navan

These environmentally friendly upgrades aim to enhance the local environment, boost biodiversity, and create vibrant community spaces.

The initiative is already making an impact, with residents praising the transformation. The Chairperson of the Liscorrie Residents Committee noted, “The additional planting has made such a difference on our estate, and the trees will look spectacular, especially in April and May when the cherry blossoms come into full bloom.”

The Tuath Blossoms Initiative is a significant step towards creating sustainable, green spaces that benefit both the environment and the community. With plans to extend this project to other developments nationwide in the new year, the Tenant Engagement Team is excited to continue fostering biodiversity and community spirit across Ireland. This initiative is a perfect example of how thoughtful planting can make a lasting impact.
