We are a forest people without a forest. Our way of life, our culture and our abundance comes from the forest. The forest is our great teacher, it is not gone from us, it lies dormant in the earth of Éire. When you leave a piece of land to regenerate naturally trees appear, when a diverse and natural forest develops it becomes a place of abundance where our culture can thrive. The forest provides food, fuel and shelter to name just some of the physical abundance, imagine food fuel and shelter in abundance - impossible to tax or regulate - just take a moment to actually imagine that this is possible,really possible - I mean stop reading and look out your window and imagine for a moment a free food machine outside your door - if you can accept that an abundance of food, fuel and shelter is possible and that this is a good thing then you can do two things to make this happen 1. Plant a tree or let a tree grow and 2. Be open to learning about abundance from that tree.
Trees don't need us - we need them, we need to reconnect our culture to that of trees and that means educating ourselves, not with academic knowledge but with hands on practical knowledge and skills. Our vision as Druí is to create a nation of demonstration sites in the Celtic Homelands where trees and people live in harmony and abundance. This is Celtic Forest Culture for today. Candlefield Community Forest is our first demonstration site within the Celtic Forest Nation.
