Evoking Atlanta’s oldest area code (404), Conserve the 4-0-Forest is a hometown shoutout of our love of trees through community action and forest restoration. Trees Atlanta will teach volunteers to identify common invasive plant species and how to remove them while working together in the 4-0-Forest project sites. It is urgently important that we remove and control aggressive and invasive plant species that threaten the health of existing and future trees and the urban ecosystem.
The Woodall Creek Rail Trail is a community greenspace that will eventually connect to the Atlanta BeltLine trail and ultimately the Silver Comet Trail. In partnership with the Upper Westside Community Improvement District, Groundwork Atlanta, and M West Apartments, Trees Atlanta works on forest restoration and creek restoration projects. Help us remove invasive plants, like Chinese privet and cherry laurel, to support the wildlife and humans that enjoy the greenspace.
