Inishturk has a long history of ecological study, from R.L. Praeger’s 1907 visit to modern surveys. Today, we continue this tradition through evidence-based monitoring and collaboration with national researchers.

Biodiversity is becoming part of daily life through food forests and improved hedgerows. These spaces provide food and shelter for wildlife while offering places for community connection. By working with partners like Food Forest Ireland and Trees On The Land, we are nurturing ecosystems that nourish people and reconnect the community with the land.
