Lewis Creek Greenway Community Tree Planting

Help Lewis Creek and the Vista at Blacksmith Run community recover from the impacts of Hurricane Helene by volunteering for a native tree planting with help from our friends at Conserving Carolinas.

Meet us at 126 Casting Ln, Hendersonville, NC 28792 on March 7th and 8th for a two day volunteer event! The folks of the Vista at Blacksmith Run community will be providing food both days!

This volunteer event, co-sponsored by Trout Unlimited, is made possible thanks to support from the Truist Charitable Fund and the Arbor Day Foundation.

Trout Unlimited has planted and distributed more than 3,500 trees in areas impacted by Hurricane Helene, and will plant and distribute more than 10,000 additional trees in 2026. The Arbor Day Foundation’s Community Tree Recovery program, aims to replace trees in communities affected by natural disasters throughout the United States. The program has helped distribute more than 5.3 million trees since its inception in 2005. Working with Trout Unlimited, 

The planting will help restore streambanks damaged by flooding, reduce erosion and enhance habitat for local wildlife
