Welcome

Our crafty members were busy making some amazing decorations for the annual Deck the Trees.  This event generates $$$ to help offset heating costs for our neighbors in the Valley.  Go to The Monte Vista Hotel this month to view the trees and help our neighbors stay warm.

The Town is decked with greenery from the welcome signs, garden site to Town Square.  On Saturday, check out Santa's sleigh as we decorated that too.  Our committee really has too much fun making Black Mountain beautiful!

Would you like to take a bit of Town Square home with you!  Well you can stop by Town Hardware and purchase a notecard set of the 4 seasons of Town Square created by local artist & beautification member, Joyce Black-Woerz.  All the funds support our beautification projects.

If you have a Black Mountain gardening project in mind, submit an application for our Seed Money Award.  This Award was established in 2013 and we have supported over 14 projects in town.  Money for this grant is funded from our annual Black Mountain Garden Sale.  We will be accepting applications starting in January.

While you are walking around the Historic District, check out our containers.  They are filled with plants that should take the cold weather coming up.  Each street has a different design which makes them interesting.   The plant material was amazing this fall, just look at this beautiful ornamental cabbage!

The Fall Workday took place on 11/11 behind the Center of the Arts called "The Hill".  Thanks to everyone participating to weed, mulch and filling  21 bags.  Volunteers were busy at The Visitors Center digging out overgrown scrubs and more.  A new landscaping design is in the works for this site.
