City of Raleigh issued the following announcement on Aug. 29.
Have you noticed longer grass along Crabtree Creek? There's a reason for that!
We're growing a meadow along the greenway trail on Glenwood Avenue and Crabtree Valley Avenue. This will help reduce water pollution and protect the floodplain.
What You'll See
During this process, we'll:
- Keep the grass long; and,
- Mow the lawn and overseed it every spring to maintain the meadow.
