At Dosatron, we’re committed to green initiatives, sustainability, and the three Rs: renew, reuse, and recycle. That’s why we were so intrigued when we first heard about the High Line, a public park built on a 1.45-mile-long elevated rail structure on Manhattan’s West Side. According to the park’s website, the High Line ceased operation as a rail line in 1980, and was slated for demolition in 1999, when a group of community activists calling themselves Friends of the High Line began working with local authorities to get the stretch of land turned into a park. The project won its first public support in 2002, and the park opened to the public for the first time in June 2009.
This type of community renewal project is important to Dosatron, so we were thrilled to learn that the High Line has been using the Dosatron DosaCart this summer for applying compost tea to their densely packed landscape. The mobility of the DosaCart, which they fondly refer to as Dosie, allows the gardening team to easily transport compost tea in the DosaCart tank and plug into any of the water valves along the High Line.
