HWA is working with town and county officials to identify and scout cleanup and planting projects with the goal to begin as soon as mid - late October.

The current priority is the distribution of supplies to cut-off communities and the removal of large and hazardous debris before we can begin the work of cleaning up and recovering, a process that may take a lifetime but we are here for every step of the way.

Below are several organizations in the county taking supplies and sign up below to stay up to date on our upcoming volunteer opportunities.

Our Mission

To maintain and improve surface water quality in the Pigeon River Watershed of Haywood County, North Carolina.

 

We accomplish this through two objectives directed at reducing nonpoint source pollution:

​

  1. Educating and focusing attention on the watershed as a natural, economic and recreational resource to be conserved and enhanced for this and future generations; and

  2. Working with public agencies, conservation interests, businesses, community groups, and public and private land owners to implement water quality improvement strategies.
