In the wake of Hurricane Helene, MountainTrue is dedicated to addressing the urgent needs of our community.
Help members of the French Broad River water team take water samples to assess Hurricane Helene's impact. We'll meet at the MountainTrue Asheville Office where we will give out supplies and a map before dividing up to grab samples. We'll teach you everything you need to know. This event will be focused in the Swannanoa watershed.
Come join the French Broad Riverkeeper team as we clean up the trash left behind by Hurricane Helene at Barnard Park. We will be removing trash and debris from the park itself and along the riparian areas upstream, downstream and across the river. Please note that this will be a land-based clean-up (no boats).

There is still a large amount of debris along the French Broad River in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.
Join us in coming together to help the Asheville community by cleaning up the French Broad River. Removing debris from the river will allow for outdoor recreation and tourism to return to the area as well as get rid of any materials that might be leaching harmful chemicals into the water. Now more than ever it is important for us to come together and support communities in need.
