Stringer's Ridge

McKee Foods understands the value of Stringer's Ridge as both an urban oasis and historic site. The forest offers trees that benefit the ecosystem as well as stunning views of downtown Chattanooga. Protecting this green space is a priority to McKee Foods, who contributed to the preservation and maintenance of this park with a stunning view.

Bauxite Ridge

Bauxite Ridge, a natural property behind McKee’s existing employee fitness center, was once sighted for residential development. Now, this beautiful landscape will be preserved and developed into an area designed for community use – not only for McKee employees to enjoy, but for anyone else who wishes to take advantage of the trails and natural features that make Bauxite Ridge such a picturesque outdoor destination.

Wolftever Greenway and Collegedale Commons

Efforts by McKee Foods to improve the Wolftever Creek Greenway and City Park in Collegedale, TN include adding miles of pedestrian trails safe for running, walking and family fun. Plus, improvements to the Collegedale Commons event space. This park is at the heart of Collegedale, just a few miles from the McKee Foods Bakery!

Tennessee Riverwalk

Also known as the Tennessee Riverwalk, this Hamilton County project has provided miles of public trails along the picturesque Tennessee River. McKee, along with many other supporters and volunteers, is working to continue extending the trail to ultimately stretch 22 miles from downtown Chattanooga to Moccasin Bend National Park.
