Irish Natural Forestry Foundation Membership


INFF wants you to sign up as a member, and help us preserve Ireland's forests. Our goals are to influence policy on forestry issues, and spread the word on the relevance of forestry to every one of us. Trees are so much more than simply trees! Trees are the homes of thousands of tiny insects, provide shelter for a variety of birds and animals, hold large masses of soil together, and are vital storage centres for water and carbon.

No trees, equals no people.

Your membership to INFF will ensure we can continue to voice the concerns of the general population when it comes to the big decisions on our forests. And because we want to make trees relevant to you, we also want you to have fun!

Why should I Join?

Our members can have extensive access to our 360 acre site. We have 20 kilometres of walkways, through woodlands old and new, and along the edge of the Blackwater and the Bandon Rivers. Access times may vary, but will generally include Monday to Friday 9.30am to 4.30pm, and alternate weekends.

Our exciting Open Days are exclusively accessible to our members in 2011. Open Days are the first Sunday of every month, and begin on March 6th. Each Open Day is different, but involves a walk in the woods, a talk or demonstration, a raffle, refreshments available!

Members will also be offered a reduced rate on all of our adult education courses (which range from hedge-laying to a variety of rural skills). Our courses and activities will be constantly evolving under the influence of our members, and we want you to be proactive about helping us create an exciting vibrant space in your community.

How much does it cost?

Annual membership rates are €35 per person, €50 for a couple, and €75 for a family. Family membership is for up to five people, with maximum of two adults.

Membership is flexible, and so there is an option to take out a one month membership for only €10 per person, or €30 for a family. This is refundable if you choose to take out an annual membership at the end of the month.
