This Spring, we had some amazing volunteers come out to the Preserve ❤️
On April 22nd and 23rd, Southern Company group came out and mulched the Children's Garden and added liner to fencing, which has been so beneficial we've adopted it as a general practice! They installed some new planter boxes for strawberries, and were a huge help at our community garden, which received a much needed de-weeding and sprucing up!
On May 14th, Cox Enterprises volunteers joined us to spread mulch, clean up litter, assemble a compost bin for summer camp, and most exciting, helped repair some patches in our deck and fence. Volunteers tackled that challenge headfirst, and we made major headways in replacing old boards, reinforcing the Children's Garden fence, and filling in cracks and small holes in the boards.
A couple days later on May 18th, we had volunteers from Aprio jump right in to our preserves maintenance; Our native garden was mulched with a undyed natural wood, to ensure the health of our plants and critters, and they took over completing the deck and fence repairs! We reinforced fence posts and trimmed overgrown bushes. We also spent some more time cleaning litter, and our woods and walkways are looking squeaky clean.
With our preserve free of litter, cleaned, trimmed and repaired, we're more than ready for Summer fun! From the bottom of our heart, thank you so much to everyone who spent their time out here! Our preserve relies on volunteers like you, we couldn't do it without you.
