Trees from Germantown Country Club to find new life
Kevin Daniel works to remove a felled tree for repurposing at the former Germantown Country Club on Jan. 17. The trees will be turned into whiskey barrels and pallets to be used on site during the redevelopment process. (Patrick Lantrip/The Daily Memphian)
Many of the trees coming off the Germantown Country Club site will not be shipped off to a landfill. Farmington-Kimbrough Development Group wants the wood to be used for a new purpose.
