We have had some marvelous #ForestFriday guests so far, but Art is our very first Feathered Forest Friday Friend! We took a trip to the WNC Nature Center to visit this fine fellow.

The air felt cold and sharp, and the sky was turning a milky white that blended into the fog, making the mountains vibrant with their red and brown leaves. This was my first time on this trail and my first time meeting Erin, a profound nature appreciator who embodies the practice of that appreciation at every level of her life. Erin also worked at Dogwood Alliance in its early days and created our first newsletter originally called, Understories.
Asheville Grit and Dogwood Alliance are proud to present Kathryn Keeper’s “Hypermetropia,” the third runner-up in our inaugural flash writing contests on the theme of Southern forests.
Dogwood Alliance is celebrating its 20th Anniversary of Southern forest protection with a fun and exciting storytelling and music festival! This free festival is great for the whole family with live music, renowned storytellers, games, yoga, kids’ activities, and more!
Dogwood Alliance is so excited to welcome, Nicole Townsend, to our team!
