HCO Paddle-n-Plant Workday

The Valle Crucis Community Park 2892 Broadstone Road, Valle Crucis, NC, United States

The Watauga Riverkeeper and MountainTrue are combating sediment erosion in our local waterways. Sediment is a major polluter in our river basin, clogging fish and aquatic habitats, increasing water temperatures, and transporting toxic substances. We are helping to reduce the amount of sediment that flows into our rivers by planting live-stakes along eroding riverbanks. As these stakes grow into trees, they stabilize the sides of the rivers and creeks where we plant them and reduce the overall amount of sediment getting into the river. So, come hop in a boat and help us reduce erosion along our local rivers!

Spring SMIE Training

Blue Ridge Community College 180 W Campus Dr, Flat Rock, NC, United States

Interested in becoming a citizen scientist? MountainTrue's SMIE (or Stream Monitoring Information Exchange) is a volunteer based water quality monitoring program. Stream teams head out twice a year to creeks throughout Henderson and Polk counties to collect and identify aquatic insects. Macroinvertebrates are strong indicators of water quality and help us track the health of our local waterways.

Green River Spring (Quaran)Clean

Join MountainTrue's Green Riverkeeper and Liquidlogic Co-founder Shane Benedict for the 10th Annual Green River Spring Cleaning! Unfortunately we can't meet up to clean the river together this year, but we can still do our part to keep trash out of our river. This year we're asking you to grab a trash bag and gloves and pick up trash from your local creek, greenway or your street. All this trash would otherwise end up in our rivers! Use the hashtags #greenriverspringcleaning or #greenrivercleanup to let us know you're participating. We'll send prizes to the top 3 trash finds.

Challenge yourself to clean up trash at a local Western North Carolina area in need. Share your before and after clean up photos on Facebook and Instagram by tagging @mtntrue with the hashtag #MTEarthDayChallenge. The person who collects the most trash in the photo shared with us will win a prize announced at 7pm on 4/22. During this time we encourage you to collect trash individually, or with your family. *To be eligible for the prize, participants must be registered on the online signup form*
