Three Sound Rivers staffers recently completed the trip of a lifetime - a 12 day, 175 mile kayak journey down the Tar River. Throughout the trip, the three paddlers were able to highlight the recreational value of the Tar River, document any water quality issues affecting the river, and gained plenty of interesting stories.
Taylor Register, a Water Quality Specialist for Sound Rivers, and her paddle mates, Katey and Emily will share with Carolina Nature Coalition and you the stories of their working adventure.
Join CNC, Taylor, Katey and Emily, Wednesday, March 25th, @ 6:30 PM at UUFNB, 308 Meadows Street, New Bern - Or join us via zoom (find zoom link on CNC Facebook page or on the CNC website.

Stop by the Program Room on Saturday, March 28 from 10am-12pm for a plant swap! Bring house plants, seedlings, flowers, and seeds to swap with others. This is not a one-for-one trade! You can take plants even if you don't bring plants to swap. This year, we're also accepting empty garden pot donations.

We will have members of the Farmville Community Garden present, as well. This is a great opportunity to learn how you can get involved with the garden!

Please label your plants with care instructions. Plants must be healthy and pest-free. Please dust off your pots to avoid tracking dirt into the library. Thank you!
