In the wake of Hurricane Helene, MountainTrue is dedicated to addressing the urgent needs of our community.
**DUE TO CATOSTRAPHIC DAMAGE AT CAROLINA NATIVE NURSERY, THIS FALL’S CENTRAL REGION NATIVE PLANT SALE WITH PICKUP IN ASHEVILLE IS CANCELLED.**
Native shrubs and perennials are a vital component of healthy streams and lakes. They help prevent erosion, filter pollution from runoff, and provide food and shelter for wildlife. MountainTrue staff and volunteers spend significant time and resources removing nonnative invasive plants along streams and lake shorelines to protect water quality and ensure that the native vegetation stays healthy.
