Professor of Entrepreneurship Colm O'Gorman DCU Business School says:

“Food Forests Ireland (The Edible Landscape Project) is an ambitious and forward-thinking education initiative that educates about climate through ‘doing’. It has demonstrated ‘proof of concept’, and the next challenge is for the project to maximise its impact by scaling quickly– ensuring that schools and communities from all across Ireland can get involved.”
