ForestWatchers far
and wide and members of the public who love native plants and award-winning
wine should attend our 2007 Wild and Woolly Native Plant Sale and Wine
Tasting. This event serves as one of the main benefits for Georgia
ForestWatch each year – and with only a $20 admission fee, itÕs
deemed an Òaffordable fundraiser.Ó It also has turned into one of the
premier events of the spring social calendar in north Georgia, and all for
a good cause.
Great food, fine
Tiger Mountain wines, and an expanded selection of quality native plants
including: Paw paw, Ironwood, Ninebark, Winterberry holly, Elderberry,
Beautyberry, Aster, Wild indigo, Scarlet Beebalm, Bleeding heart, Stokesia,
Leucothoe, Sweetshrub, Coneflower, Spiderwort, Native ferns and much much
more!
Meet special guests

Appalachians" and Peter H. Loewer, author of "The Wild
Gardener."
