Tennessee Heritage Gardening Group?

Do any of y'all know if there's a group of Tennesseans who are interested in the plants that have been growing and surviving in our state?

I know there are folks interested in old homes and in farms in the same family for over a century, but what about our flowering plants? and our vegetables and fruit trees?

The Tennessee Urban Forestry Council has a list of "Landmark and Historic Trees" and "Heritage Trees of Tennessee" on their site. This is about the only thing even close to this that I know of.

Here is a link that might be useful: Landmark and Historic Trees
