saplings

The saplings are now being given to charities, groups and individuals as "trees of hope".

Young saplings need moisture to build strong root systems, and the wet weather also relieved stress in some older trees which had been suffering during the parched weather.

Volunteers fill in gaps with saplings sprouted from mature trees growing right there on the avenue.

The saplings' new homes will all be publicly accessible.

It's November and it's unseasonably warm as John John Brown, a Muscogee elder, works to replant peach saplings.
