Where: Deerwoode Reserve

Meet: 395 Riversedge Rd, Brevard, NC 28712

Time: 10:00 am

Distance and difficulty: Easy

Join us for the final of our three-part Walk & Learn series at Deerwoode Reserve in Brevard, and experience floodplain restoration as it happens. This final guided walk invites you onto a protected property conserved through a Conserving Carolina conservation easement, offering a rare, behind-the-scenes look at how healthy floodplains are restored and why they matter.

This final walk is about one hour and takes place at the final stage of the project:

  • Walk Three, June 27: After Completion – Return to witness the finished restoration and discuss how the floodplain will continue to heal and function over time.

Whether you’ve joined us for one walk or all three, this series offers a unique opportunity to walk the land, learn from the process, and connect with the story of restoration in real time.

*Space is limited and pre-registration is required, and space is limited to 30 participants. Registration, by RSVP below.  

Be sure wear appropriate clothing and sturdy footwear, dress for a walk outdoors and on uneven, natural surfaces. Bring a snack and water for yourself.

Please also remember to bring any medication that you may need in the event of an emergency (ie: epinephrine, nitroglycerine, insulin, etc.). Walk leaders will carry a first aid kit; however, it may not contain specific medication for your individual needs.

Before each walk, you will be asked to sign a waiver form. For your safety, do not attempt any walk beyond your ability and experience. This schedule is subject to change.
