Volunteering to restore rivers in East Tennessee is important for protecting clean water, wildlife habitats, and the health of local communities. After Hurricane Helene caused severe flooding and erosion along the French Broad River corridor, many streambanks and natural areas were damaged.
By helping stabilize streambanks and plant native trees, volunteers play a critical role in restoring the river’s natural balance and preventing future erosion. Thank you for supporting restoration in East Tennessee after the impacts of Hurricane Helene—we’re grateful for your help in rebuilding healthier waterways. 🌱
