Mary Scott Nature Park Restoration Project
These 10.6 acres of central DeKalb County greenspace, acquired in 2003, are a pocket of natural beauty in the midst of lawn-heavy 1960’s suburbia. The old homestead’s woods are battling exotic invasives and, to a lesser extent, historic landscape plants. Public education on the restoration process, including that of a streambank, is a goal for Mary Scott Nature Park.
Our regular workday is first Saturday of each month, Noon to 2 PM between October and May. During June, July, August and September, we meet 10 AM to Noon. Come to front entrance 4150 Briarcliff Rd.
