This holiday, bring your friends and co-workers, meet new people, and join Trees Atlanta on a Holiday Arboretum Tree Tour.About the Docent: Rich Sussman has been a volunteer Docent leading tours of the Atlanta Beltline Arboretum Eastside Trail before the concrete was finished being poured. Rich was in the first Docent Training class in 2012. Since then, Rich has become one of our most popular Docents. Rich has led over 100 tours for Trees Atlanta and educated and delighted hundreds of people as he confidently shares horticultural and historical information about the Eastside Trail arboretum, often including interesting trivia about the Eastside’s baseball history and his expertise as a Master Gardener.
