The way I used to work was treating land as an extension of people’s homes, like outdoor rooms. It’s the native plants that feed larvae, and without them, everything collapses. Native plants are hardly anywhere. My life is based around trying to remind people of what Ireland and the world should look like. I’m just trying to make it work and trying to do it with integrity as much as I can.
