Dine Out For Evergreen is THIS WEEKEND!
A huge thank you to Evergreen parent and Universal Joint GM, Mike Kovitch, for arranging a fundraiser for Evergreen March 21-23.
If you haven’t experienced the U Joint yet, now’s the time! They’ve been serving fantastic create your own burgers, along with salads and sandwiches (and don’t forget those tater tots!!) since opening in 2009.
It’s a great dog friendly neighborhood hub in West Asheville with a fantastic outdoor patio. So far, the weather is looking great. So, stop by for lunch or dinner (or both) March 21-23 for great food for a great cause.
Let’s celebrate the first weekend of Spring by playing and dining in walkable West Asheville over the course of the weekend!
Saturday morning 10-Noon families are invited to bring out your bikes or your lawn games, and come let the kids play at Malvern Hills Park before heading over to the UJ for Lunch!
Sunday morning from 10-Noon families are invited to West Asheville’s Gassaway Park for a pick-up Kickball Game, or to hang at the playground! Gassaway Park is just at the end of Vermont Ave, so it’s super walkable to The UJ and the rest of West AVL.
Join a meetup, or simply stop by The UJ March 21st-23rd to support the school and an Evergreen Community Business during this delicious fundraiser!

Meet Grade Level Goals
to Plant a Class Tree!
Thanks to another sponsor, Asheville Greenworks, grade levels that meet their grade level goal of $5500 will have a tree planted on campus in their honor. These trees are the first step in restoring the precious canopy that was lost here on campus, and in our region.
The Sourwood is one tree we may be getting, it’s blooms are a boon to local honey bees, who create the prized Sourwood Honey that we sell each year.
Please Donate or Share the Fundraiser, for the bees!
Together we grow back greener (and sweeter)!
