Woodstock Employees Plant Community Orchard

Employees of the City of Woodstock recently gathered at Dupree Park to plant fig, serviceberry, and plum trees for a new community orchard. The orchard was made possible by a grant from the Atlanta Regional Commissions Atlanta Local Food Initiative (ALFI).

The ALFI works to build a more sustainable food system for metro Atlanta. The initiative includes communities, nonprofits, universities, government agencies, individuals, and corporations. ALFI envisions a transformed food system in which every metro Atlanta resident has access to safe, nutritious, and affordable food produced by a thriving network of sustainable farms and gardens.

Dupree Park was the most suitable location for the orchard. Some of the trees are near the fitness trail, while others are near the fallen K-9 memorial and the duck pond. The fruits will be readily accessible to people who are enjoying the park. First fruits should arrive in four to five years. City of Woodstock is looking at options for signage to recognize the grant and identify the trees.
