About this episode
Jefferson County Greenways is spearheading a community initiative to cultivate 60,000 native plants for the revitalization of East Side Park in Birminghams Roebuck Springs neighborhood. The six-acre site, once neglected, is being transformed into a nature haven featuring five habitats and over 5,000 feet of accessible trails. The project, awarded an excellence prize, requires $1 million for plants and installation. Local leaders view it as a transformative project for the area, fostering inclusivity and nature connection. The Community Growing Program invites Birmingham gardeners to contribute by growing native plants from their yards or attending workshops. Sign up for the program, attend the Spring Native Plant Sale, and stay updated online as the park prepares for a December 2026 opening.
