University of Alabama Campus Development has teamed with Facilities and Grounds to begin steps to create a campus tree farm, which will be used to propagate many different native plants including camellias, oaks and magnolias.
The project for propagation of historical and heirloom trees coincides with the team goals for the campus to become more self-sustainable and play a key role in the green initiative. The team hopes the project will encourage more members of the UA community to get involved with this new service opportunity.
“I am excited about building a tree farm on university property,” said retired Air Force Col. Duane Lamb, who is associate vice president of UA’s Facilities and Grounds Department. “Cultivating the seedlings and cuttings within our own greenhouse will be cost-effective for our institution, as well as help build camaraderie among different department employees who are making our tree farm a reality.
