A Butterfly Baby Tree & €40 donation to Féileacáin

Description

Planting a Memorial Butterfly tree as part of a stunning lakeside woodland is a lovely and meaningful way of remembering a baby who has been lost. This serene setting is the perfect place to preserve and protect their memory.

By arranging the planting of a Butterfly tree you will also be donating €40 to Féileacáin (Butterfly)-Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Association of Ireland – SANDAI - A National charity.

A simple but powerful gesture, the tree planted will forever honour the immeasurable impact of their existence. The tree can also help bring comfort to a grieving parent or family as it continues to grow, slowly and steadily, for generations.

Planting Process

All the trees are planted on our 10 acres of beautiful, peaceful, lakeside woodland, located in North County Dublin, near the small village of Naul. Other Memorial Trees are planted in the shape of huge leaves, with a butterfly plot between each pair of leaves.

We plant flowering bulbs with each Tree planted, and the c.2,000 tree woodland is surrounded by millions wildflowers and pollinated by our 15,000 bees.

The sentiment of your choice will be printed on the certificate.
