Community Impact
- Weekly Nature Walk at Lake Junaluska. A small-group community walk around this scenic mountain lake is offered by The Pollinators Foundation on Tuesdays, 5:00-6:00 pm. These walks are free and no registration is needed. New walkers are invited to email Jae so we can welcome you when you arrive. More information.
- Building Partnerships. Our plans for 2025 – 2026 include strengthening partnerships with nonprofit organizations and local groups focused on nature conservation, environmental education, and cultural arts in local Blue Ridge Mountain communities. We are welcoming volunteers with all levels of experience to help us with this effort.
