A key component to a healthy stream or lake and good water quality is native trees and shrubs. In order to raise awareness about the beautiful, resilient plants that are native to our Southern Appalachian Mountains and to provide a little funding for our ongoing invasive plant eradication efforts, we are again holding a Native Tree and Shrub Sale this fall. Choose from 36 species of native trees and shrubs, ranging from large shade trees, native ornamentals, pollinator species, and those particularly beneficial to wildlife.

We are excited to announce a raffle drawing to raise important funds supporting the work and programs of MountainTrue. The raffle winner will have their choice of either of these handmade, one-of-a-kind, wooden paddles crafted by your Broad Riverkeeper, David Caldwell. The winner will be announced at our MountainTrue Virtual Annual Gathering on Wednesday October 21st. You can get one entry ticket for $10 or 3 tickets for $20. Enter today for your chance to win one of these beautiful paddles!
