Freedom Park Trail Invasive Removal and Beautification
The Freedom Park Trail connecting Clifton Terrace NE to North Ave NE is bordered by Oak Grove Park, Candler Park Golf Course, and Mary Lin Elementary School. This trail is well used by the neighborhood, but the edges are overgrown with invasive plants that reduce site lines, native biodiversity, and attractiveness of the trail. Trees Atlanta recommends invasive removal and replanting in the following zones outlined in the attached photo labeled Butterfly Garden, Mary Lin, Wisteria Pit, Evergreen Fence, Stream Edge 1, Oak Grove Park Entrance, and Stream Edge 2. These zones make up a total of 1.72 acres. Invasive plants present include Chinese Wisteria, Chinese Privet, Amur Bush Honeysuckle, Chinese Holly, Japanese Honeysuckle, Glossy Privet, and Callery Pear. Removal of invasive trees & shrubs, severing of climbing vines threatening the existing canopy, and 5 years of Wisteria treatment in these areas costs $21,513.21. If this project is selected, Trees Atlanta will donate 100 trees to replant the Wisteria Pit, Evergreen Fence, Stream Edge 1, and Stream Edge 2 zones, a $10,678.50 value. Tree species will be selected based on the desire of the community. Read more...
