About Irish Peat Bog Oak
Contribution made by the bogs are to the Irish culture has been bog wood. After the last Ice Age melted away, Ireland was covered with a dense forest of pine, yew and oak trees. The forests were eventually overcome by the bog plants that preserved the wood they covered in peat. The wood would eventually be uncovered in the process of harvesting the turf. In keeping with a simple agricultural way of life where everything had a useful purpose, the recovered pieces of wood were turned into roofs, furniture, looms or milk churns.
Conservation efforts are underway by both the government and private organizations to protect the bogs. The Irish Peat Conservation Council is leading the way with information and lobbying efforts on behalf of these delicate ecosystems. The Republic of Ireland Government's part includes the designation of Natural Heritage Areas, with protection under the Wildlife Act of 1976. Progress is being made, so there is hope that the peatlands will continue to be a living, growing part of the Irish world.
