Join us for three hours “off the eaten path” as we find and gather over a dozen wild edibles. We’ll whip up a little tasting right on the trail.

Wild mushroom pizza, daylily tamales, sassafras root beer, wisteria ice cream… it all depends on what we find!

John Doyle‘s remarkable guitar talents are legendary but in recent years his songwriting has been getting a growing share of attention. His articulate, colorful and evocative songs of emigration, war, oppression and loss rival the greatest traditional songs ever in the Irish canon. An evening of top class musicianship and songs by an original heavyweight in celtic music.

Asheville restaurants are coupling their off-premise order options with a digital fundraising program so local charities like Coalition of Asheville Neighborhoods can stay active and funded this year.
Nearby fundraising partners for Coalition of Asheville Neighborhoods include Five Guys, MOD Pizza, & Dickeys Barbecue Pit, who will donate 15 – 20% of orders back to Coalition of Asheville Neighborhoods when you book a date to fundraise with them.

“Love Bubble” is the name of the freshest harmony-driven trio in WNC! Made up of 3 of our areas finest and most sought after singers, you’re in for a dreamy, nostalgic, heartwarming and whimsical time! If the fact that they sold out their debut show at the Grey Eagle in December 2019 isn’t enough to convince you, certainly hearing them live, will! Hank Bones (guitar/vocals), Paula Hanke (vocals/flute/uke) and Peggy Ratusz (vocals/harmonica/percussion) bring a holiday twist to their psychedelic jazz/rock/pop 60’s vibe for this Christmas themed concert! It’s the time of the season! Happy Holidays from Love Bubble!”
