Upcoming Events

This is a great opportunity to learn about natives, get plants or seeds, and meet members! It is a benefit of being a Wild Ones Appalachian Highlands member.  It is an opportunity to thin out your flower beds of native plants and bring your labeled plants or seeds to swap and share.  If you don’t have any extras, just come and take some home!

The Swap will be followed by a potluck dinner and social hour.  Please bring your own beverage and a dish to share. You will be charged $2 at the gate for parking.

We are excited to offer a home garden tour by Susan Brown, a WOAH member since 2022.  She has spent 3 years transitioning some of her 12 wooded acres to native plants.  Susan has consulted with Christy Shivell, owner of Shy Vallet Nursery in Fall Branch, TN.  Christy will be joining us to talk about her design and planting of various areas.  Susan has native plants around her house and a new area established with Christy’s help.  There are also 4 sections of a rain garden that run down a slope in front of her house.  An open sloped area has native nut and berry trees and shrubs.

She and her husband have spent many hours eradicating Japanese Stilt grass and Asiatic bittersweet, along with many other invasives.  We can learn a lot from her experiences with this evolving project.

Susan’s list of native plants is impressive.  We believe you will have to see her gardens to appreciate the work she has done over 3 years. 

Location: Members will use email to register for the tour: [email protected] and the address will be provided by email closer to the date.
