Several members of our Atlanta office volunteered to plant native grasses along the Eastside Trail portion of the Atlanta Beltline with Trees Atlanta on Saturday, March 30th. As a major component of the Eastside Trail’s landscaping, more than 11 acres along the trail will be transformed into a prairie. To accomplish this, Trees Atlanta volunteers will be planting 109,000 native grass bulbs. Each one of Brockington’s volunteers planted about 150 bulbs, and though it was knee-breaking work, several even plan to return for future plantings! When complete, the native grass prairie will be a welcoming oasis in the middle of rapidly developing section of Atlanta.
