Local Benefits for Arboretum Friends
Friends of the JC Raulston Arboretum get privileges at a number of businesses. I recently observed that out of 34 participating businesses, 4 of them are in Chatham County - that's just shy of 12%. Local participating businesses are:
Barefoot Paths Nursery
Better Tree Care Associates
The Last Unicorn
Oakmont Nursery
If you are a Friend of the Arboretum, certain discounts apply at these businesses.
For details about these benefits and providers visit the JCRA webpage at:

For more about how to become a member and other benefits, see:

And remember you don't have to be a member to enjoy the gardens at this internationally known arboretum. It's open to the public (no charge) 7 days a week.
