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 fifth part of our series: LEARN Challenges and Opportunities in the French Broad River Watershed!

Jack Henderson, French Broad Paddle Trail Manager with Mountain True, will talk about the many challenges that the French Broad River watershed has come up against in the past, and the opportunities that are presented to us now to keep the river flowing in the right direction.

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