Join Kentucky Heartwood
In addition to the amazing feeling you get knowing you are helping protect and restore the lush, biodiverse forests of Kentucky, a membership in Kentucky Heartwood gets you our beautiful newsletter mailed to your door at least once a year.
The newsletter is packed full of information about Kentucky forests, original artwork, and is always printed on tree-free or 100% post-consumer recycled paper. You can browse past issues of our newsletter here.

Can't see the forest for the trees?
Here's what we suggest doing if you're interested in supporting our wildlands.
Advocacy work can seem a bit daunting, especially if you're attention is being pulled in different directions.
Here are four things you can do TODAY to make a difference and get started.
-
Explore issues that matter.
Discover the issues we're fighting against and how you can help. We protect the trees, plants, animals, fungi, streams, soil, and water within the wildlands of Kentucky.
-
Take action.
Action can mean writing to your representative or legislator, sign a petition, or attend an event. We know it's hard to know WHAT to write, so we provide scripts or an outline to help you quickly make a difference.
-
Become a member.
Monthly membership donations provide us with sustainable income as a nonprofit. We use this money to continue our research, education, and advocacy work. $5 a month may seem little, but it makes a big impact!
