In the wake of Hurricane Helene, MountainTrue is dedicated to addressing the urgent needs of our community.
The French Broad Riverkeeper and MountainTrue are combating sediment erosion in our local waterways. We are helping to reduce the amount of sediment that flows into our rivers by planting live-stakes along eroding riverbanks.
Fire has shaped Southern Appalachian forests for thousands of years and has a natural role in our forest ecosystem. However, highly effective government wildland fire suppression programs have led to a dramatic decline in fires, and in many cases, have left us with unhealthy ecosystems. Come to Green Drinks to learn more!
MountainTrue, Headwaters Outfitters, and the Wedge are excited to offer this free course on paddling the French Broad! We will cover topics including the history of the paddle trail, how to pack, trip suggestions, leaving no trace, and paddling with your kids and pets!
