                                WILLIAM M. ENNIS

Dear Shareholders:

Money market funds did their job during the past year.

During a period when both the stock and bond markets delivered generous returns,
although with some short-term instability, money market funds provided investors
with an opportunity to receive competitive current income, to maintain
liquidity, and to have a safe harbor from the fluctuations of riskier parts of
the capital markets.

During the year, the U.S. economy continued its extraordinary performance.
Unemployment neared 24-year lows, the Gross Domestic Product grew strongly, and
consumer confidence soared. Through it all, inflation remained benign, despite
the exceptional growth and low unemployment.

This near-perfect environment was interrupted briefly in March when Federal
Reserve Board Chairman Alan Greenspan, in an appearance before Congress,
suggested that it was necessary that the Federal Reserve Board raise short-term
rates to curb potential inflation. On March 25, the board did just that, raising
the Fed Funds rate by one-quarter of one-percent. Subsequently, the economy
continued its healthy, non-inflationary pace of growth, and the board did not
change rates again for the remainder of your fund's fiscal year, which ended on
August 31, 1997.

In the bond market, after the rates jumped up in March, they started a gradual
decline during the following two months. As measured by the three-month Treasury
Bill, interest rates bottomed out at 4.84% on June 2, then climbed steadily
before closing at 5.22% on the final business day of August.

Throughout this period, your Evergreen money market funds retained their $1.00
net asset values, while income tended to move with changes in market rates.
These funds proved to be an excellent place for assets of those investors who
wanted a relatively safe place for their money, either because they wanted
liquidity or because they were concerned about volatility in the markets.

I am delighted to inform you that Evergreen Keystone has successfully integrated
all service functions of Evergreen and Keystone Funds. This means that you now
have full exchange privileges among all Evergreen and Keystone America funds. In
addition, you will be receiving the top-flight service that earned Evergreen
Keystone the 1996 Dalbar Quality Tested Service Seal, the highest award for
mutual fund service presented by Dalbar, an independent mutual fund survey and
rating firm.

In the following pages, we provide specific information about each Evergreen
money market fund. We present this information in a new format that makes
information easily accessible. We are very interested in hearing your thoughts
on this new format, and we welcome your suggestions.

                                         Sincerely,

                                         /s/ Bill Ennis

                                         WILLIAM M. ENNIS

Adjustable Rate Bonds are putable back to the issuer or other parties not
affiliated with the issuer at par on the interest reset dates. Interest rates
are determined and set by the issuer quarterly, semi-annually or annually
depending upon the terms of the security. Interest rates presented for these
securities are those in effect at August 31, 1997.

Variable Rate Demand Notes are payable on demand on no more than seven calendar
days notice given by the Fund to the issuer or other parties not affiliated with
the issuer. Interest rates are determined and reset by the issuer daily, weekly,
or monthly depending upon the terms of the security. Interest rates presented
for these securities are those in effect at August 31, 1997.

Certain obligations held in the portfolio have credit enhancements or liquidity
features that may, under certain circumstances, provide for repayment of
principal and interest on the obligation upon demand date, interest rate reset
date or final maturity. These enhancements include: letters of credit; liquidity
guarantees; standby bond purchase agreements; tender option purchase agreements;
and third party insurance (i.e. AMBAC, FGIC and MBIA). Adjustable rate bonds and
variable rate demand notes held in the portfolio may be considered derivative
securities within the standards imposed by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under Rule 2a-7 which were designed to minimize both credit and
market risk.

* Securities may be sold to "qualified institutional buyers" under Rule 144A or
  securities offered pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
  amended. These securities have been determined to be liquid under guidelines
  established by the Board of Trustees.

* Securities may be sold to "qualified institutional buyers" under Rule 144A or
  securities offered pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
  amended. These securities have been determined to be liquid under guidelines
  established by the Board of Trustees.

Adjustable Rate Bonds are puttable back to the issuer or other parties not
affiliated with the issuer at par on the interest reset dates. Interest rates
are determined and set by the issuer quarterly, semi-annually or annually
depending upon the terms of the security. Interest rates and reset dates
presented for these securities are those in effect at August 31, 1997.

Variable Rate Demand Notes are payable on demand on no more than seven calendar
days notice given by the Fund to the issuer or other parties not affiliated with
the issuer. Interest rates are determined and reset by the issuer daily, weekly,
or monthly depending upon the terms of the security. Interest rates presented
for these securities are those in effect at August 31, 1997.

Certain obligations held in the portfolio have credit enhancements or liquidity
features that may, under certain circumstances, provide for repayment of
principal and interest on the obligation upon demand date, interest rate reset
date or final maturity. These enhancements include: letters of credit, liquidity
guarantees, standby bond purchase agreements, tender option purchase agreements,
and third party insurance (i.e. AMBAC, FGIC and MBIA). Adjustable rate bonds and
variable rate demand notes held in the portfolio may be considered derivative
securities within the standards imposed by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under Rule 2a-7 which were designed to minimize both credit and
market risk.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The Evergreen Money Market Funds (the "Funds") consist of the Evergreen Money
Market Fund ("Money Market Fund"), Evergreen Pennsylvania Tax-Free Money Market
Fund ("Pennsylvania Tax-Free Money Market Fund"), Evergreen Tax Exempt Money
Market Fund ("Tax Exempt Money Market Fund") and Evergreen Treasury Money Market
Fund ("Treasury Money Market Fund"), known collectively as the "Funds". The
Funds are all registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the "1940 Act"), as diversified, open-end management investment companies.
Money Market Fund is a series of Evergreen Money Market Trust, Pennsylvania
Tax-Free Money Market Fund is a series of Evergreen Tax-Free Trust, Tax Exempt
Money Market Fund is a series of Evergreen Municipal Trust and Treasury Money
Market Fund is a series of Evergreen Investment Trust.
 
Each Fund offers Class A and Class Y shares. In addition, the Money Market Fund
offers Class B, Class C and Class K shares. Class A shares are sold at net asset
value without a front-end sales charge. Class B and Class C shares pay a higher
ongoing distribution fee than Class A shares. Class B shares are sold subject to
a contingent deferred sales charge that is payable upon redemption and decreases
depending on how long the shares have been held. Class C shares are sold subject
to a contingent deferred sales charge payable on shares redeemed within one year
after the month of purchase. Class K shares are available for exchange by
shareholders of any Keystone Classic Fund. The contingent deferred sales charge
applicable to shares of the Keystone Classic Fund exchanged for Class K shares
will carry over to the Class K shares received in the exchange. Class Y shares
are not subject to any sales charges or distribution fees. Class Y shares are
sold only to investment advisory clients of First Union Corporation ("First
Union") and its affiliates, certain institutional investors or Class Y
shareholders of record of certain other funds managed by First Union and its
affiliates as of December 30, 1994.
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which
require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts
reported herein. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
A. VALUATION OF SECURITIES
Portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost which approximates market
value. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security at cost on the date
of purchase and thereafter assuming a straight-line amortization of any discount
or premium.
 
B. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
Each Fund may invest in repurchase agreements. Securities pledged as collateral
for repurchase agreements are held by the custodian on the Fund's behalf. Each
Fund monitors the adequacy of the collateral daily and will require the seller
to provide additional collateral in the event the market value of the securities
pledged falls below the carrying value of the repurchase agreement, including
accrued interest. Each Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with
banks and other financial institutions which are deemed by the investment
adviser to be creditworthy pursuant to guidelines established by the Board of
Trustees.
 
C. SECURITIES LENDING
In order to generate income and to offset expenses, the Funds may lend portfolio
securities to brokers, dealers and other financial organizations. The Funds'
investment adviser will monitor the creditworthiness of such borrowers. Loans of
securities may not exceed 30% of a Fund's total assets and will be
collateralized by cash, letters of credit or United States Government securities
that are maintained at all times in an amount equal to at least 100% of the
current market value of the loaned securities, including accrued interest. While
such securities are on loan, the borrower will pay a Fund any income accruing
thereon, and the Fund may invest the collateral in portfolio securities, thereby
increasing its return. A Fund will have the right to call any such loan and
obtain the securities loaned at any time on five days' notice. Any gain or loss
in the market price of the loaned securities which occurs during the term of the
loan would affect a Fund and its investors. A Fund may pay reasonable fees in
connection with such loans.
 
D. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
Securities transactions are accounted for no later than one business day after
the trade date. Realized gains and losses are computed on the identified cost
basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion
of discounts and amortization of premiums.
 
E. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Funds have qualified and intend to continue to qualify as regulated
investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"). Thus, the Funds will not incur any federal income tax liability since
they are expected to distribute all of their net investment company taxable
income, net tax-exempt income and net capital gains, if any, to their
shareholders. The Funds also intend to avoid any excise tax liability by making
the required distributions under the Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal
income taxes is required. To the extent that realized capital gains can be
offset by capital loss carryforwards, it is each Fund's policy not to distribute
such gains.
 
F. DISTRIBUTIONS
Distributions from net investment income for each Fund are declared daily and
paid monthly. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at
least annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded at the close of
business on the ex-dividend date.
 
Income and capital gains distributions to shareholders are determined in
accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature,
such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets.

G. CLASS ALLOCATIONS
Income, expenses (other than class specific expenses) and realized and
unrealized gains and losses are prorated among the classes based on the relative
net assets of each class. Currently, class specific expenses are limited to
expenses incurred under the Distribution Plans for each class.
 
2. CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS
 
The Money Market and Tax Exempt Money Market Funds have an unlimited number of

3. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS
 
The Treasury Money Market Fund loaned securities during the year ended August
31, 1997 to certain brokers who paid the Fund a negotiated lenders' fee. These
fees are included in interest income. The Fund received cash as collateral
against the loaned securities in an amount at least equal to 100% of the market
value of the loaned securities at the inception of each loan. The Fund monitors
the adequacy of the collateral daily and will require the broker to provide
additional collateral in the event the value of the collateral falls below 100%
of the market value of the securities on loan. At August 31, 1997, the value of
securities on loan and the value of collateral amounted to $469,852,400 and
$475,006,250, respectively. During the year ended August 31, 1997, the Fund
earned $499,529 in income from securities lending transactions.

4. DISTRIBUTION PLANS
 
Evergreen Keystone Distributor, Inc. ("EKD"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The
BISYS Group Inc. ("BISYS"), serves as the principal underwriter to the Funds.
The Funds have adopted Distribution Plans (the "Plans") for their Class A
shares, Class B shares, Class C shares and Class K shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the 1940 Act. The Plans permit each Fund to reimburse its principal
underwriter for costs related to selling shares of the Fund and for various
other services. These costs, which consist primarily of commissions and services
fees to broker-dealers who sell shares of each Fund, are paid by the Fund and
classified as "Distribution Plan expenses". Distribution Plan expenses are
calculated daily and paid monthly.
 
Under the terms of the Plans, the Funds may incur distribution-related and
shareholder servicing expenses which may not exceed 0.75% of average daily net
assets for Class A Shares of Money Market and Tax Exempt Money Market Funds and
0.35% for Class A Shares of the Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Money Market and
Treasury Money Market Funds. The payments for Class A Shares of the Funds are
voluntarily limited to 0.30% of average daily net assets.
 
The Money Market Fund may incur distribution-related and shareholder servicing
expenses which may not exceed an annual fee of 1.00% of average daily net assets
of its Class B and Class C shares and up to 0.30% of its average daily net
assets of its Class K shares.
 
During the year ended August 31, 1997, amounts paid to EKD pursuant to each
Fund's Class A, Class B, Class C and Class K Distribution Plans were as follows:

EKD has entered into a Shareholder Services Agreement with First Union Brokerage
Services ("FUBS"), an affiliate of First Union, whereby EKD will compensate FUBS
for certain services provided to shareholders and/or maintenance of shareholder
accounts relating to Money Market Fund's Class B shares.
 
EKD intends, but is not obligated, to continue to pay distribution costs that
exceed the current annual payments from the Money Market Fund. EKD intends to
seek full payment of such distribution costs from the Money Market Fund at such
time in the future as, and to the extent that, payment thereof by the Class B,
Class C or Class K shares would be within permitted limits.
 
For the Money Market Fund's Class B, Class C and Class K shares, contingent
deferred sales charges paid by redeeming shareholders are paid to EKD.

The Capital Management Group ("CMG") of First Union National Bank of North
Carolina ("FUNB"), a subsidiary of First Union, serves as the investment adviser

Evergreen Keystone Investment Services, Inc. ("EKIS"), a subsidiary of First
Union, serves as the administrator for each Fund. Prior to March 11, 1997, EAM
was the administrator. Furman Selz LLC ("Furman Selz") was the sub-administrator
through December 31, 1996. Effective January 1, 1997, BISYS acquired Furman
Selz' mutual fund unit and accordingly BISYS Fund Services became
sub-administrator.
 
The administrator and sub-administrator for the Pennsylvania Tax-Free Money
Market and Treasury Money Market Funds are entitled to an annual fee based on
the average daily net assets of the funds administered by EKIS for which First
Union or its investment advisory subsidiaries are also the investment advisers.
The administration fee is calculated by applying percentage rates, which start
at 0.05% and decline to 0.01% per annum as net assets increase, to the average
daily net asset value of the Pennsylvania Tax-Free Money Market and Treasury
Money Market Funds. The sub-administration fee is calculated by applying
percentage rates, which start at 0.01% and decline to .004% per annum as net
assets increase, to the average daily net asset value of the Pennsylvania
Tax-Free Money Market and Treasury Money Market Funds.
 
During the year ended August 31, 1997, the Pennsylvania Tax-Free Money Market
and Treasury Money Market Funds paid or accrued to EKIS $23,109 and $1,030,140,
respectively, for certain administrative services.
 
For the Money Market and Tax Exempt Money Market Funds the administration and
sub-administration fees are paid by EAM and are not fund expenses.
 
Lieber & Company, an affiliate of First Union, is the investment sub-adviser to
the Money Market and Tax Exempt Money Market Funds. Lieber & Company is
reimbursed by EAM, at no additional expense to the Money Market and Tax Exempt
Money Market Funds, for its cost of providing sub-investment advisory services.
 
During the year ended August 31, 1997, the Funds' fees were waived as follows:

7. DEFERRED TRUSTEES' FEES
 
Each Independent Trustee of the Funds may defer any or all compensation related
to performance of their duties as a Trustee. Each Trustee's deferred balance is
allocated to deferral accounts which are included in the accrued expenses for
each Fund. The investment performance of the deferral accounts is based on the
investment performance of certain Evergreen Keystone Funds. Any gains earned or
losses incurred in the deferral accounts are reported in the Fund's Trustees'
fees and expenses. Trustees will be paid either in one lump sum or in quarterly
installments for up to ten years at their election, not earlier than either the
year in which the Trustee ceases to be a member of the Board of Trustees or

9. FINANCING AGREEMENT
 
On October 31, 1996, a financing agreement between all of the Evergreen Funds
and State Street, Societe Generale and ABN Amro Bank N.V. (collectively, the
"Banks") became effective. Under this agreement, the Banks provide an unsecured
credit facility in the aggregate amount of $225 million ($112.5 million
committed and $112.5 million uncommitted) allocated evenly between the Banks.
Borrowings under this facility bear interest at 0.75% per annum above the
Federal Funds rate. A commitment fee of 0.10% per annum will be incurred on the
unused portion of the committed facility which will be allocated to all
participating funds. State Street acts as agent for the Banks, and as agent is
entitled to a fee of $15,000 which is allocated to all of the Evergreen Funds.
 
During the year ended August 31, 1997, the Tax Exempt Money Market Fund had
borrowings outstanding for 3 days under the line of credit and incurred $28,513
in interest charges related to these borrowings. The Tax Exempt Money Market
Fund's average amount of debt outstanding during the year ended August 31, 1997
aggregated $47,400,000 at a weighted average interest rate of 7.218%. The
maximum amount outstanding under the line of credit during the year ended August
31, 1997 was $67,212,367 (including accrued interest). The Funds had no
outstanding borrowings under this agreement at August 31, 1997.
 
10. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
The Pennsylvania Tax-Free Money Market Fund invests a substantial portion of its
assets in issuers located in a single state, therefore, it may be more affected
by economic and political developments in that state or region than would be a
comparable general tax-exempt money market fund.

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Evergreen Money Market Fund,
(the "Fund"), a series of the Evergreen Money Market Trust, at August 31, 1997,
the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net
assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
highlights for each of the periods indicated and the financial position of the
Evergreen Tax Exempt Money Market Fund (the "Fund"), one of the Evergreen
Municipal Trust Portfolios, at August 31, 1997, the results of its operations
for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years
in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods
indicated, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as
"financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds' management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August
31, 1997 by correspondence with the custodian and the application of alternative
auditing procedures where securities purchased were not received, provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
