July 25, Bowditch Bottoms Invasive Species Removal. NCWF and Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy joined forces once again to tackle invasive plant species at Bowditch Bottoms in Yancey County. The crew has already removed the majority of the multiflora rose and autumn olive in one of the wetland areas with the goal of replanting with native wetland species in the fall and over the course of the next few years. On this workday, we directed our focus toward the Japanese knotweed growing along the creek on the property. Knotweed is a highly successful invasive plant of wetlands, stream corridors, forest edges, and drainage ditches across the country. Fortunately, we caught it early enough at Bowditch Bottoms and are confident that we'll be able to manage its spread. Big thanks to all the volunteers who helped with this effort! More work days are being planned, so stay tuned for opportunities to volunteer at Bowditch Bottoms and learn about the project and the partnership!

June 28, New River Clean Up: New River Conservancy, Keep Ashe Beautiful, and NCWF’s High Country Wild got together for a clean-up and debris removal on the New River in Ashe County. Trash and debris in waterways create a host of problems for wildlife including entanglement, ingestion, habitat contamination, and degraded water quality. Cleanup efforts are vital in keeping our waterways clean and maintaining suitable habitat for wildlife. The crew removed nearly 2 thousand pounds of garbage!
