It’s raining steadily in Tucker, probably in Decatur also. But our friends at weather.com say that it will start to dry up by 1 pm. That means by 2 pm we can definitely listen to music in the pavilion.
See you there!

2014 has been busy! Perhaps most exciting, Woodlands is taking steps to purchase a one-acre parcel next door. This property will provide safe appealing access from Scott and Clairemont, double our parking, and create a beautiful entrance to the City of Decatur.
Woodlands was chosen to be one of only five venues for the Wilderness Act Performance Series, celebrating our country’s dedication to preserving its wild green spaces. Woodlands led the development of “Garden Go Seek,” now a project of the City of Decatur, inviting children to explore the city’s greenspaces and gardens.
Woodlands also hosted Urban Wilderness + Man-Made Nature, an exhibit of Atlanta Celebrates Photography, by photographers Virginie Kippelen and Shannon Davis. Our partners at Skyland Trail for the fourth time brought delicate fairy houses to tuck along our trails. Our volunteer gardeners masterminded a native plant sale that raised over $3,600.
In 2013, the Georgia Urban Forestry Council honored Woodlands Garden for its unique preservation of urban forest and the ensuing environmental and educational benefits brought to the community. We also opened the Garden to the public full time.

Live Music by Blackfoot Daisy
Blackfoot Daisy is Don Sechelski, Adam Sechelski and Wendy DuMond. They write music about love, loss, family, horses, dogs, and things they have yet to ask forgiveness for. Using harmonies taken from a backwoods church choir, they call themselves the “poor man’s Nickel Creek.”
By day, Don and Adam are both educators. Adam teaches high school drama and Don teaches second-grade math and science. Wendy works in a law firm. We welcome this talented trio to their first performance at Woodlands Garden.
