"To preserve and protect our community's
rich historic and cultural legacy."

Greene County Heritage Trust has launched an America250 project with Skyline Restoration & Maintenance to restore Tennessee Historical Commission (THC) Markers in Greene County based on condition. Markers in "A" condition will be $500, "B" condition $650, "C" condition $800, and "D" condition $1,350. We are seeking community donations for this project. Our overall goal is $27,700. Trust Board Members will be reaching out to people with ties to specific markers to reach our goal. Online donations can be made using the button above. See the 36 markers and their conditions by clicking here.

The Greene County Heritage Trust has reestablished the Greene County Landmark Plaque Program. This program that was begun in 1988 enabled churches, schools, businesses, hospitals, public buildings, and individual property owners to identify sites of historic interest and significance throughout the county.

 

If approved, a 5" x 10" bronze plaque may be purchased to display on or at the landmark.

Since the Greene County Heritage Trust was established as a local nonprofit 501(c)3 organization in 1973,  its primary mission has been to help protect, preserve, and/or restore Greeneville and Greene County structures, sites, and artifacts that are part of our countywide community’s rich historic and cultural legacy. In addition, working with other similar groups, the Trust seeks to increase public awareness of that legacy, and build respect and appreciation for it.
