Join us in celebrating The Flowering Forest. This heartfelt tree tribute to the legendary John Lewis was initiated in 2021. As an annual community planting event, it pays homage to Atlanta’s late civil rights leader.
The project was inaugurated with the first 300 flowering trees planted in Freedom Park. The tree species we’ve selected begin to bloom in late winter. The park and parkway start to pop with color as early spring teases its arrival and is a timely celebration of Lewis’s birthday on February 21.
