    Whoever you are, welcome to the green wood. Sit under a silver birch, turn your face towards the sunlight dancing in the leaves, and wait. It should not take you long to feel vibrations of vital forces and smell freshness of tree juices. You will see vivid colors of life and hear the tales of old that cheer up and enliven the heart.
   The enchanted large oak grows high up to the sky. Its branches touch the stars and its roots anchor deep in the heart of Mother Earth. As long as the heart beats, the world remembers its natural rhythm and the creation has strength to last. We are safe with the tree, with Crann Bethadh - the Tree of Life.
     The great plan of Creation, where everything has its time and place, chose a group of happy fellows, living on the Slavic Island of Wolin to release Celtic tunes enchanted in their souls. It wasn't easy to get them together and make them experience the same eagerness and passion to realize the plan. But the place they all belong, has been hallowed by the tradition of a Vineta town and the blood of valiant Jomsvikings. To maintain the regional customs and save the local spirit from modern demons of laziness and indifference, the fellows started to play traditional Irish music whose warmth and emerald colors embraced Wolin's tired soul, bringing it comfort and joy. Both Ireland and Wolin were joined by what they have in common: steepness of the cliffs, greenness of the landscape, love of the golden mead and music that moves the heart.

The Celtic music band - "GreenWood" started on July 15th 2003 in the town of Wolin in Poland.
Rehersals take place at the Town Hall at Zamkowa Street No 23
