Mayo River State Park »  Welcome!
Odwalla, a producer of outdoor-oriented snacks and drinks, is sponsoring a 50-state competition to give away trees specifically for state parks. Each person visiting
www.odwalla.com/plantatree/_NC.jsp can vote for North Carolina and each vote = $1 for purchasing trees for planting.
For those parks that allow campfires, serious plant pests can be introduced into our parks by campers who bring in firewood. To prevent this, many of our parks sell firewood. For campers who choose to bring in their own firewood, please use wood harvested from a source local to the park. Campers should not bring firewood from outside of North Carolina.
