Paramili-trees out in force!

-

 Cant believe what happened over the weekend!


Two separate Paramili-Tree A-Corn teams went and got acorns of the Old Knobbly oak tree in Essex, both teams dug holes and got soil from around the tree and collected a handful of decent acorns with one team member who got talking to the grounds man and he said she was welcome to some of the self seeded saplings that have grown around the tree, these can be dug up and posted in winter time when they are dormant.


Its amazing whats being created here, I'm in Belfast and two Paramili-Tree A-Corn teams could have very well bumped into each other collecting acorns for the oak grove museum of ancient and iconic trees that I'm going to plant up here in Belfast!


Its really got my head thinking with the response I'm getting from this acorn project, I dont think I'm even at the tip of the iceberg yet as to what the phantom planters real reason for existing is but I'm just flowing with it and keeping on planting and chanting and loving every bit of it..


One thing I've noticed though is over on the mainland UK they seem to love their ancient trees a lot more than over here, many councils add supports to the older trees instead of cutting them down.

Felt so sad yesterday as I was on the hunt for an ancient oak tree in Belfast with a recorded girth of over 8 metres to find out it was chopped down due to health and safety, it was in the middle of a forest and not near any roads or houses and its gone! This tree was well over 500 years old!


I read before that Northern Ireland has the least native tree cover in Europe, when you look around the place there are very few ancient trees left, what we do have left should be showpieces and marveled, supported and fenced off if needs be, plaques added of stories of how our landscape at one time was filled with trees like this and a squirrel could have went from one end of the country to the other across the tree tops!

I often wonder what would be cheaper, paying a tree surgeon to chop them down or fence them off...


Our whole existence is built of the back of trees, from railways, houses, ships and your whiskey barrels, we would not be here if it was not for trees, never mind the food and air they give us also!


Time we all manned up and paid these ancient trees the respect they deserve and everyone of us should be out there collecting seeds right now from all the ancient trees that are left and grow them up for phantom planting!


Time to level up, carbon offsetting and karmic offsetting, becoming a phantom planter today is just what all our souls need and the world! 


Thanks again to all the A-Corn Team for all your efforts !

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with a po

From Spain to Belfast Phantom Planting!

  Phantom planted another apple tree yesterday with my big glaswegian pal who is over visiting! He couldn't believe the size of the orchard now! Last time we planted a tree was years ago in Spain, 2 plum trees we phantom planted out there, sadly they didn't survive but we had great fun doing it in the lashing rain right outside the Buddhist Stupa as you can see in one of the pics, an offering to the Buddha was my intention! I was at the worst of my addictions back then, used to visit this Stupa a lot for spiritual guidance, really found myself out there, spent a lot of time in Spain soul searching, taking advantage of the cheap winter flights and free stay! I had my last ever pint at the airport after praying at this Stupa, the Buddha responded to my offering I believe! Pretty magical really, faith in a higher power guys, that did it for me, there's more to all this life, more to all this all this world! "Those who don't believe in magic will never find it"..
