Its all branching out like a tree!

 Have had some amazing good news guys. 

Was away last night meeting a very nice man who is offering us land to plant up a community orchard on. 

Literally within one day of setting up the gofund page to help raise money to phantom plant the 320 native Irish apple trees I have someone has got in touch offering me land to do this project.

 

I was going to be phantom planting these 320 apple trees around a few different locations in South Belfast but this man who has gotten in touch says he wants to offer his land to be used for something good. 

There is around 3 or so acres and its just outside South Belfast. 


I have stated to him that this must be a public orchard for the community to visits freely as and when they want and he's happy with that. 

I'm planning on making many of these trees memorial trees were family's can have the opportunity of coming and planting a memorial apple tree for their past loved ones. 

I have also said to the man that the land would need to be put into a sort of community trust so that the land can never be sold if god for bid something was to happen to him.  


It all seems a bit too good to be true. 

I've been wanting to plant up one massive heritage Irish apple orchard for sometime now and this has landed on my lap!

And with it being so close to where I'm living it really is pretty magical. 


Will keep you all posted guys.

Going to go back and have another chat with him soon. 

So great to connect with other like minded people out there who are all doing their bit for the community and nature. 

It's whats needed big time!


I have to give a special thanks to Tony Mallon from NI Peoples party for putting this together. 

Tony has been a big support to my mission right from day one. 


Thank you to everyone who has been supporting the GoFundMe me page so far. 

I'm hopeful we will raise the full money before planting time comes this December and move onto our next projects in expanding our heritage apple tree nursery site so we can produce 1000 apple trees a year. 


Its all coming together beautifully and branching out like a tree. 


If you'd like to support this very special mission you can do so on the links below and if you'd like to have a memorial tree planted get in touch also.

  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 ...

 Good morning guys, most of you have probably seen my disheartened post the other day about me feeling a bit down on the financial side of things to do with the Phantom Planter. I've been trying for so long now to earn a decent living from it to help fuel my passion in what I'm doing. There's nothing more I'd love to be doing than going round phantom planting fruit trees and maintaining them, getting my free fruit tree map app all updated and promoting it also so everyone can have free fresh fruit. I also have plans for my Oak Grove museum and several other community and nature projects I had on my mind. But for the past while I've been spending hours every day doing all sorts of work to do with the phantom planter and It's always been in the back of my head at times, what am I doing?? As most of you know I've been donated a small plot of land and I'm intending on building a cabin on it and I need money to do this. I'm living in a rotted rented cabin...

 From I've been saying that I'm on Onlyfans I've a lost a few hundred followers on my main phantom planter Facebook page. And the posts on it have a attracted many negative comments from people who seemed to know alot about life story and phantom planting antics, these are people that have been reading all my previous posts in depth and have never commented once before as I do read nearly all the comments and show my gratitude and if its a negative comment I just give them a hug. But it just shows you how many people are reading your posts with venom, just waiting until you put a foot wrong then give off. Then they announce they're departure commenting "Unfollowed." Look guys I'm really not going to lose any sleep over it and its certainly not going to distract me from my mission and soul purpose. I very rarely give my attention to negative comments on here or even get in a debate with. I would much rather give my energy and attention to people who are sup...
