As we begin planting our first Irish Heritage Trees, learn more about the Tipperary farmer behind our first forest.
John Purcell, an organic beef farmer from County Tipperary, has contributed scenic sections of his 500-acre farm to the Irish Heritage Tree program - a program that allows the Irish Diaspora to plant a tree in Ireland and reconnect and forever be connected with their Irish roots.
Located in the Golden Vale of Ireland in Tipperary, the farm is steeped in natural beauty and Irish folklore, with several ancient ringforts still visible on the farm. The farm also has ties to St. Patrick, who allegedly lost his tooth in the Fadaghta River that runs through the site.

The Shackleton Museum Athy, is one of 11 museums that has received accreditation under the Museum Standards Programme for Ireland (MSPI) from the Heritage Council, as the sector prepares a fightback against the fallout from the Covid-19 pandemic.
The certificates were presented at a special online ceremony today. Accreditation certificates were awarded in 2020 but last year’s ceremony was delayed due to Covid-19 restrictions.
Selection under MSPI is seen as a major accolade in the sector. The Shackleton Museum Athy achieved a Maintenance of Full Accreditation certificate in 2020 for excellence in caring for its collections; as well as its museum management, visitor services, and education and exhibitions programmes.
