Holiday Tree Tour with Trees Atlanta
Looking for something unique to share with family and friends over the Thanksgiving holidays? Join Trees Atlanta, Sylvan Hills Neighborhood Association, and Capitol View Neighborhood, and the Friends of Perkerson Park for the 2026 Holiday Tree Tour!
We’re all connected - to each other, to the natural world, and to our communities, yet loneliness and isolation are at an all time high. Spend time with neighbors and new friends discovering the unique history of the Sylvan Hills and Capitol View neighborhoods as well as the park connecting them, Perkerson Park. Explore the urban forest growing in our community streets and parks, plus tour a portion of the Sylvan Hills Neighborhood Arboretum, designed by community members. Along the way you’ll hear stories and see examples of ways individual and collective efforts support a vibrant community and its natural beauty.
About the Docent: After returning home to Georgia from North Carolina, S.E. Spencer Keziah has called SWATL home. She, her partner, and her dogs enjoy exploring Atlanta’s urban forest with trips further afield to the North Carolina mountains as often as possible. Growing up in metro Atlanta, S.E. spent time volunteering with Trees Atlanta and is excited to be part of the docent team to further the mission. She can’t wait to share her love for her neighborhood with tour participants!
Additional Information:
