To celebrate the Northern Peaks State Trail coming to Boone, join us for an afternoon of eradicating invasive plants on the property! In partnership with The Town of Boone and Blue Ridge Conservancy, this workday focuses on the history, eradication, and uses of some of the plants we'll see. As the new southern terminus of the Northern Peaks State Trail (NPST) in downtown Boone, we are excited to revitalize the property and allow native flora to begin finding new life at the site! Flora and fauna expert Will Bennett, our friends from Blue Ridge Conservancy, and Town of Boone folks will be joining us for both workdays. Our main focuses will be garlic mustard and oriental bittersweet.

Broad Riverkeeper is sad to announce that all May Saturdays Guided Outings will have to be postponed indefinitely. We just learned that contractors, hired by Cleveland County to remove Hurricane debris from the First Broad River, will be working in the entire 50 miles of the waterway over the next few months. We scouted and cleared the first three sections that we had planned for outings. But we don't have a schedule from the contractors to know when and where they will be working. New potentially dangerous obstacles may be created as the work continues. We recommend that paddlers stay off the First Broad River until we know more as the work progresses. Stay safe! Contact David, your Broad Riverkeeper, david@mountaintrue.org if you have questions.

The post-World War II of the 40’s and 50’s shifted the food paradigm from local to high-yield crops and grocery stores. Steeped in an economy of convenience, this system provides on-demand food, but has shown devastating impacts on the environment, health, and community. Could a shift back to local be the answer to these 3 top issues faced today? Join us for a discussion entitled, “Localization; the answer to more than just the environmental crisis?” with Tia Wackerhagen, RN, BSN, Food and Agriculture Committee Co-chair, and member of the Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments. |

While we remain deeply excited about this training, we have decided to postpone the event as we continue the process of hiring two key staff members: an Organizing Director for MountainTrue and an Organizer for the Creation Care Alliance. We believe these roles are essential to fully supporting our covenant partners and making this training as impactful and meaningful as possible.
