JITT is a benefit for Wild Forests & Fauna (WildFF) and last year's inaugural event raised $5000 to protect, restore and support threatened forests and wildlife in Western North Carolina.

"At WildFF, our Big Tree Project that leverages outreach education and reforestation to protect forests in Western North Carolina and around the globe,” WildFF’s Executive Director Benjamin Colvin says, “Since JITT, the Big Tree Project has grown and has even sparked a relationship with ABTech and local company ArborZen to restore a razed site with over 500 native trees. We are thrilled to be a part of this and can not wait for Jam in the Trees 2017!"   

"Jam in the Trees fit like a glove in our beautiful amphitheater, and we couldn't be more excited to partner with this organization again in support of our most precious forests and natural resources in 2017. It's a real win-win!" says Benton Wharton, Events/PR Director for Pisgah Brewing.
