The region's EU flowers have this great document to promote themselves

EU flower

Hi guys

Here is the link for the EU flower tourism document for Ireland: click!

This is a great document to promote the EU flower with! Really, we couldn't have asked for a better document to promote the EU flower accomodation in the region with. If you are an EU flowered accomodation, I'd recommend putting a link to it onto your sites.

greenbox news: focus on profile

We've been busy publicizing our members, and here is some info on that guys:

EU flower news: A special publication has just been produced by EU Commission. The focus is the island of Ireland, the Greenbox, Kingfisher trail and the regional EU flowers are the main features of this publication. This new publication was promoted at ITB Berlin - the biggest Tourism Fair in Europe.
We'll put a link on this blog and on our site soon. For now, you can see an earlier EU Flower publication, focusing on the whole EU here: Flowers in Ireland are on page four and five.

Mary Mulvey (CEO) and Jerome O'Loughlin of Ireland Ecotours were on Dave Fanning's drivetime radio show on RTE1 on Thursday. They did a great job representing the Greenbox. Don't worry, if you missed it, you can listen here

We've also featured in other places: A French edition of the Greenbox times, which focused specifically on the Greenbox ecolabel packages has been produced. Already, it has been featured at French tourism trade shows.

We regularly get mentioned on various tourism and consumer websites. Here's an example: go!
