Save our Ancient Forest


After having the opportunity to walk the "Hill Tract" this past weekend, I was amazed at such a pristine piece of land in the middle of Davidson County. Friends of Warner Parks has been working tirelessly trying to raise a little under 11 million to purchase this old growth forest. It is well worth the money, too. There are said to be very few pieces of land in the southeast with the density of diversity. I would urge you to look more into this as an investment in our future generations. As farmland after forest is bought up, cleared and developed without a true understanding of the footprint we leave behind, we must see ourselves as stewards and not only owners of this very diverse land. For more information on how you can contribute to this cause, please visit http://www.friendsofwarnerparks.com/ht_index.html

Two in One Day

We'll, it's a first in Gardens of Babylon history. We made the Tennessean twice in one day, both times on a sections cover page. This article was posted yesterday in Life. 2nd Tennessean Article Matt has a interestingly concerned look on his face in the picture. Tygard has a great strategy for creating more dense tree canopies in Nashville.

It looks as though our attempts at more media attention are working. Stay tuned for more articles this spring.
