Asheville is very fortunate to have http://www.hatchasheville.org/ as a part of our community. I believe they will be planting in Asheville for the next 9 years at least, and by then, they should be here to stay!

HATCH, thank you for all of your hard work and the many great contributions you are making to the Asheville and Western North Carolina community. My life has been enriched so much in just a few days.
