Trees are the peacemaker!

-

 Nearly 200 fruit trees me and my right hand man looked over yesterday to make sure they were all ok.

We also mapped them of there locations to go on to the phantom planters free food map.

All these fruit trees have been phantom planted by us over the past 4-5 years at what we call The Phantom Planters HQ aka Belvoir Memorial Orchard.


We have over 700 fruit trees now in and around Belvoir housing estate South Belfast and there's no sign of us stopping!

As my right hand man was saying yesterday this is a legacy we are doing. Long after we are gone these trees will still be providing for the community and nature carrying on and promoting phantom planting for many future generations ahead.


Last night as I was working away tagging the trees an Indian couple was just sitting chilling at the orchard and then a lovely Polish family stopped by and sat at the bench my right hand man made around the old oak tree in the middle of the orchard.

I had some great chats with them and they are meeting me on Sunday to get signed up as phantom planters. I have a nice apple tree for the kids to plant, they have just moved into the estate and thought it would nice for them to have their own tree in the orchard. 


We also have our big Ugandan phantom planter who comes to the orchard regularly and he helps out in the plantings now and again. He planted an apple tree and called it "All Nations"...


Planting trees is the peacemaker between all races I believe.

I see peoples faces when they see me out and about on my own looking after the trees and they ask, Why do you do this? Do you just do this of your own back?

Because its the right thing to do I say, nature and communities are crippling. We all need to stand up and do our bit.


And we all need to return on a personal basis what we have taken from nature, think what we use every day, all the Earths resources, we need to make an effort to return this. 

We consume so much natural resources then waste it on our ego, which ultimately I believe is creating karmic debt for us.

We take from the earth to give back to the earth, Keep it symbiotic, you know it makes sense!


I challenge you to phantom plant a tree!

  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

 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
