CITY OF RALEIGH: Growing a Meadow Near Crabtree Creek to Protect the Planet

Grass

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. 
The meadow should not interfere with activities on the greenway.
