Each year, this family of dedicated tree guardians volunteers their time and expertise to grow more than 1,000 native tree seedlings to help restore our urban tree canopy.

DIY Litter Cleanup

Ongoing (anytime, anywhere!)

Organizing a litter cleanup with your friends, neighbors, co-workers, or other community members is easier than you may think! Asheville GreenWorks provides cleanup supplies and safety information, and will coordinate trash pick up as needed. Supplies include gloves, safety vests, trash bags, trash grabbers, and a SHARPs container. Register now to learn more about borrowing supplies to organize your own cleanup!

Pine Tree Giveaway

Plant a tree (or several) to celebrate Arbor Day and Earth Day, and leave an evergreen legacy. White Pine and Virginia Pine are available in 1 gallon pots (1-2ft in size).

Now through the end of April while supplies last. Contact sara@ashevillegreenworks.org.
