Be a Mainspring

You may be familiar with the term “Mainspring” as it relates to a watch – it’s the principal spring that keeps a mechanism moving.

More relevant to our work is the second definition: a mainspring is “something that plays a principal part in motivating or maintaining a movement, process, or activity,” a driving force, a prime mover, a reason, a generator, an impetus. Exactly what we are for conservation in the Southern Blue Ridge.

Choose to be a force for conservation. We need your help. Click here to see the ways:
