Since 1974, we have conserved 75,000 acres of the Southern Appalachians for present and future generations.

Your generous monthly gifts make conservation possible all year long! This is an easy way to show your love for our mountains, streams, and farms.

Each event leaves a ripple of positive impact on local communities and the future of conserved lands across Western North Carolina and East Tennessee.

Your gift will help safeguard our vital natural assets, provide places for recreation, advance access to farmland, and foster healthy communities.

An innovative model of productive agriculture, environmental health, and access for beginning farmers.
