OPW Craft Gardener Lynn O'Keeffe will present her talk 'The Wood Wide Web' at Portumna Castle Gallery. This presentation will discuss the theory that trees and plants communicate underground sharing food, water, nitrogen, carbon and other minerals. The concept of an interconnected forest has evoked comparisons with the internet, hence the moniker “the Wood Wide Web”.
