On the third Saturday of each month, we host our BeltLine Beautification Project at our adopted section of the BeltLine. What we will be doing: Volunteers will beautify and protect our section of the Atlanta BeltLine, which may include: painting kindness rocks, spreading mulch, plantings, removing invasive plants, picking up trash and debris, cleaning signs and fixtures, and taking note of any damage or vandalism.
