The N.C. Cooperative Extension, Transylvania County Center and Conserving Carolina are offering a series of lectures, field trips, and service days to better acquaint the public with the French Broad River, considered one of the oldest rivers in the world, and give you ways to explore and act on its behalf.

The series is divided into 5 topics – March – June; each topic will have lecture (LEARN), field trip (EXPLORE), and service day (ACT) components. Lectures will be presented by local experts, authors, and scientists. Field trips will highlight the topics introduced by the speakers, and service days will act upon those topics.

The second part of our series: LEARN the Geology of Waterfalls in the FBR Watershed!

“Whence These Special Places” author Bill Jacobs will speak about the special geological features of the French Broad River watershed and how those features contribute to the astounding number of waterfalls in our area.

Registration is required and space is limited, reserve your spot here. Please contact Kim Gundler at [email protected] with any questions.
