By

A wildlife exhibition currently on display at Killarney Library will soon tour across Kerry.

The project, Hedgerows and Trees in the Kingdom, is a collaboration between Crainn Chiarraí and the Kerry County Council Biodiversity Officer.

It highlights the importance of hedgerows and trees for biodiversity, climate, and cultural value, while promoting best practice in managing these landscapes as ecological corridors for wildlife.

Six arts facilitators led workshops for participants to create individual and collaborative pieces showcasing native hedgerows and their habitats.


The exhibition will travel across the county over the coming months, paired with local workshops to continue educating communities on hedgerow and tree management.


As part of the initiative, a related event will take place on October 24 and 25 at Tralee Bay Wetlands and Cromane, sharing knowledge and practical projects for managing hedgerows and trees.
