The Napier Green Streets Project is turning Cannon Street into a safer, greener, and more connected space—with community-powered transformation on the way. From planting almost 100 native trees, to community art and safer sidewalks, this is a project built with the neighborhood, for the neighborhood.
Led by a team of Green Interchange, NDOT, Walk Bike Nashville, and the Civic Design Center, we’re tackling urban heat, water runoff, and pedestrian safety—all while making space for creativity and connection. Stay tuned and get involved—this is your street, reimagined.
Join Us in Restoring Spring Creek! We’re excited to launch the Spring Creek and Black Branch Restoration Project in Wilson County, TN—an important effort to restore water quality in Spring Creek and Black Branch to remove it the state's polluted streams list. Led by Green Interchange, this project uses eco-friendly, hands-on techniques like native plant restoration to fight erosion and our sources of drinking water and recreational water.
As a volunteer, you’ll be part of a team using real tools and real muscle to protect local wildlife, preserve tree roots, and restore natural beauty to a creek damaged by development. Expect lots of fresh air, learning opportunities, and meaningful impact—plus, you’ll be helping us meet critical EPA-funded grant goals that support long-term environmental health in Tennessee.
Tree planting and live staking will take place through fall 2025– winter 2026—and we need passionate volunteers like you to make it happen!
