Xmas Trees Recycled

In our newsletter we asked for your help in recycling trees so they could be used to restore creek banks throughout the area.  Wow! were we surprised when 150+ trees showed up at the Blue Heron Nature Preserve.  We especially appreciate the efforts by people who picked up many trees from the curb and delivered them.

Southeast Waters/AmeriCorps, our environmental helpers, are delighted and has already used many of the trees to repair creek banks throughout Buckhead.   
Good work, neighbors!
