Dogwood Alliance turns 25 this year. Wow! How beautiful and exciting. We would have loved to celebrate in person with you, but we’ve decided to take our celebration online for the safety of our community.
We invite you to join us for our virtual festival to celebrate the past 25 years, the next 25 years, and being in the Right Place at the Right Time to make a real and lasting difference for forests, climate, and justice.
Let’s time travel back to the ’80s and revisit one of the decades’ top sports dramas.
The movie starts at 8 PM at the Regal Biltmore Grande & RPX. If you would like to grab a drink beforehand, please meet at the Thirsty Monk at Biltmore Park at 6:30 PM.
I recommend purchases the movie tickets ahead of time.
We team up with Claxton Elementary each year to find folks who’d love to provide gifts for students who would otherwise go without. If you’re looking for a way to give back this season, these children need you!
Once you sign up, we will match you with a child and email you a printable ornament with their sizes and wish list!

Please join me for an evening hike in the hills around Asheville in the Grove Park – Sunset neighborhood.
We will meet at the Harris Teeter Parking Lot in the northwest corner.
PACE: This hike is at a 2.5 to 3.0 pace, but mostly toward 3.0 mph even going up hill. Please be aware of your abilities and level of physical fitness. We will stop and wait for people to catch up in certain spots, but we cannot wait a long time.
REQUIRED: A headlamp or flashlight.
I plan on bringing a weighted backpack (if any one knows what Rucking is, google it) and carry 40 lbs to make things more challenging. Feel free to do the same.
I will be paying attention to no-shows. A no-show with no notice prior to the hike or without changing your RSVP will make sure you end up on a wait list for my future hikes and backpacks if I decide to put a limit on the group size.
Waitlisters: Please keep an eye on your RSVP status even on the day of. It may change to “going” within an hour of the hike with the way people drop in and out.
Well behaved and trained dogs are welcome on this hike.
If you are bringing a +1, please chose the +1 option when you sign up or edit your RSVP to show that. I like to have an accurate headcount going into a hike. Additionally, please make sure your +1 is capable of doing the above mileage and pace.
If anyone is interested we can decide on a place to get some beer after the hike. Beer is important! Priorities!
The Full Moon is upon us!
Some call it Beaver Moon and this moon maybe be called the Micro-Beaver Moon on the account it is at the farthest way.
In opposition to the Super Moon…
Lets get out for an adventurous and somewhat strenuous night!
Hike this double-summit, ultra-scenic five mile loop on the Art Loeb and Ivestor Gap trails, summiting Black Balsam Knob and Tennent Mountain. It’s a sun-drenched, blueberry and blackberry-filled adventure over two bald mountains to some incredible view
We will be hiking at night with a short stop to enjoy the moon and stars at Ivester Gap.
What to Bring:
Flashlights/Headlamp
Snacks
Water
Hiking Poles
Hat/Gloves/Warm Cloths

The Cherokee language was spoken in North America thousands of years before the arrival of Europeans and is still used today by the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians in the mountains of North Carolina. However, this fascinating language is now endangered, with the final generation to learn the language in the home now reaching middle age and the number of native speakers dwindling. In addition to long-standing efforts by the tribal schools and a summer language camp, a total immersion preschool and elementary school offers fresh hope that the Cherokee people may retain this vital component of their history and heritage. This Emmy award-winning film documents the extraordinary fight to rescue the very heart of Cherokee identity.
In English and Cherokee with English subtitles. Presented in conjunction with A Living Language: Cherokee Syllabary and Contemporary Art.
