The map is getting there!

-

 Another 17 apple trees planted yesterday bringing the total so far to 203!!


Everyone that has a tree planted for someone in the orchard, memorial tree/birth tree/ celebration tree etc. 

These have all been planted and are getting logged onto the phantom planters free food map soon for you to see. 

You'll also be getting a picture of your tree sent in the coming days. Was meant to go and photo them today but its forecast a storm for today.


The pic is a screenshot of the what3words locations of all the trees, the type of tree and who its named after is attached with each tree. All this data will be transferred over onto the phantom planters tree map by our beautiful tech specialist. Really none of this would be possible without her, thank you so much for coming into my life!


All the right people have came into my life at the right times to make all this happen.


Lots of people that have came up have said why have I planted in all straight lines, there are no straight lines in nature some have said. Although my big LeaftTenant said yesterday, from one tree to another is a straight line. Guess he has a point.


There are many reason they are all in perfectly straight lines and yes I am a bit OCD too btw but the real reason is for mapping. Many of these trees are rare native Irish apple varieties that in the future when they grow big are going to be mother trees for cuttings to produce many more heritage orchards. 

I have visited many old heritage orchards about the country where none of the trees are name tagged and on a few occasions we have got a hold of a map of the trees telling what they are. Some of the maps were roughly drawn detailing the tree varieties and because they were just planted and scattered all over the walled gardens it was really difficult to pinpoint the exact trees. Many I just left due to not being certain of the variety. 


I will be leaving behind a detailed hand written map of this orchard and in 100 years time if another me pops up wanting to do all that I'm doing today they are going to know exactly which tree is which.

Its also much easier for cutting between the rows of trees when in straight lines. But this orchard is going to be more a native apple tree storage bank for me. This is just the start of it!

I'll be planted and chanted till im a 100!


Have a great new years eve guys. Go easy on the drink and drugs. Even better save your money and phantom plant some trees tomorrow. You'll experience a different type of high! Pleasure and joy are 2 different things.


Peace and love..


"Spent way too much on self gratification which nearly ended in my own eradication, time to give back what we've all taken or our future generations will be left forsaken, now that the spirit in me has awakened, planting trees is my soul purification."


That was one of my first attempts at poetry many years ago! It was not that long ago that I thought apostrophe was a Greek God!!!

  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...
