 The Black Mountain Neuro-Medical Treatment Center will build a new flower garden that can be easily accessible for their limited mobility residents. The project will include an elevated garden bed. 

The Open Oven Cafe will landscape the front of the restaurant with plants and flowers that will
thrive in the shade. This project will include the garden space around the cafe sign, planter
boxes, and trellises. 

The Black Mountain Primary School will replace broken down cinder block borders on the rock garden, the sensory garden and herb garden with solid timber borders. These beds are visible
to the school personnel, parents, and students, as well as the general population. 

The SVCM Hope for Tomorrow project includes landscaping the slope between the apartments and Montreat Road. The area will be stabilized with ground cover, shrubs, and perennials. 

The Center will be creating a rock and ornamental fence and adding a new raised bed. Children that attend the Center will help with the planting and maintenance  of the bed. 

 The Unitarian Congregation, in partnership with Eagle Scouts, will install a Little Free Library/Pantry with a garden surrounding it in front of the church. The Congregation will also be replanting a garden on both sides of the church’s welcome sign. 

 The Black Mountain Arts’ Center will be adding colorful planters to the rear exterior of the building and also planting a small shade garden under the stairwell. 

 The Lakeview Center will revamp the large three-tiered planter adjacent to the center and facing Lake Tomahawk. The planter will contain mass plantings that will provide color and interest throughout the growing season.
