Green Collaboration
the office park who want to spend time in the garden can help with planting, picking and just enjoying the fruits, vegetables and herbs. The tenants have been pleased.
Lindsay Corris of ADDO, a tenant in the business community offered, “this is so out of the ordinary and not many office parks have something like this, and it is well maintained and so accessible.”
Natural Born Tillers is expanding this model and now working with Delta Air Lines at its corporate campus and with other larger companies. According to Cory, Tom and EpiCity served as the foundation for this program. He remembered, “Tom first said to me ‘we have all this land – why don’t we grow some food?’ and so that’s what we did.” Natural Born Tillers also works with herbs and pollinating plants as nectar sources.
All Natural Born Tillers landscapes are maintained using organic methods, which provides pesticide free environments for beneficial insects like honeybees, butterflies, and lightning bugs.
At EpiCity’s Armour Junction, located at 400 Plasters Ave. in Atlanta, there is a patio garden with service berries, as well as blueberries, mint, guava, figs, rosemary, and lavender.
“We are really enjoying this collaboration with Natural Born Tillers and training EpiCity’s landscaping crew. She loves the work, adding “the gardens are aesthetically pleasing and fun. When people pass by, it looks like landscaping and then they get a little closer and there’s carrots, there’s radishes and herbs. It’s fun watching their reactions.”
At Powers Ferry Business Park there are three raised beds where carrots, radishes, peppers, and tomatoes are growing to be harvested. There is also space designated for perennials -- blueberries, blackberries, Asian persimmons, figs, lavender, pineapple guava, and a Nanking Cherry tree (bush) that serves as part of the landscaping. Tenants and visitors to and the ability to offer our communitymembers more amenities and a chance to get outside and to be a part of God’s beautiful creation,” said Stokes.
