 2013.  The sale will feature native plants that volunteers have 
propagated in the nursery on site for a variety of garden conditions.  
Native plants are a good choice for introducing into the home landscape 
for a number of reasons:  they are beautiful, they are sustainable, and 
they contribute to habitat conservation by creating biodiversity and an 
environment favorable to wildlife.
The Native Plant Sale will also feature 
wildflower walks, tree identification classes, animal presentations, bird watching and much more
. 
 Bring the whole family and explore the unique landscape that is 
CA&NC at Reflection Riding, with over twelve miles of trails, over 
one-thousand different species of flora and an incredible variety of 
animal life.
“We are anxious to share with our community the beauty, serenity and 
adventure to be found all on one site, right here, just minutes from 
downtown Chattanooga.”  Dr. Paola Craddock, Greenhouse Manager said.  
“And we hope many people will take advantage of the free admission all 
weekend.”
Evidence of early Tennessee Valley Native Americans, Spanish 
explorers, pioneer settlers and Civil War soldiers is present in the 
natural landscape of CA&NC.  Other features include the George S. 
Bryan Discovery Forest Treehouse and the Paddler’s Perch, both located 
on the banks of Lookout Creek, and the Wildlife Wanderland, with its 
many species of captive native animals including highly endangered Red
