Brookhaven is tackling invasive plant removal with a new partnership, according to a press release.  The city has entered a partnership with the nonprofit EcoAddendum, or Eco-A, and ReForest ATL to remove invasive plant species in four areas: Murphey Candler Park, Fernwood Park, North Druid Hills Greenspace, and Osborne Park. The partnership plans to use environmentally safe ways to remove these species and train volunteers to assist with the effort. Jeff Dadisman, Brookhaven's tree canopy preservation program manager, said that the effort encompasses an initiative to restore diverse forests in the area and avoid collateral damage to native plants.
