In 2018, Asheville GreenWorks engaged 3,500 volunteers in 260 projects. 
That's a big deal! We love the way our community shows up to take care of our urban environment.

Where do volunteers work?
Public lands in Asheville and Buncombe County. Our mission is to equip and mobilize individuals to care for the places they love to live. That means greenways, parks, neighborhood roads, creeks, streams, rivers, and community orchards. You should be able to enjoy all of the places you've helped to improve!

What do volunteers do? 
​
Plant trees, pull tires from waterways, remove thousands of pounds of litter from creeks and roadsides, help with recycling events, build bee habitats, and more! 

How can you get involved?
Check out our Upcoming Events to see what public volunteer projects you can get involved in. If your business, school, church, or friend group want to organize their own project, we can do that! Just email our Community Engagement Coordinator to set something up.

Want to help but not quite ready to volunteer? Consider sponsoring an event or program, becoming a member, or making a contribution to support Asheville GreenWorks.
​
No matter what, you'll still get to show that you #LoveWhereYouLive.

​Asheville GreenWorks is a 501(c)3 non-profit environmental organization, governed by a Board of Directors. Established in 1973, GreenWorks mission is to inspire, equip and mobilize individuals and communities to take care of the places we love to live.
