Walks and Events

Join me for this informative, entertaining, and philosophical dive into compost, composting systems, and how to keep a compost pile alive, active, and smelling good. We will discuss various systems, including tumblers, piles, Vermicomposting (i.e., worms) and Bokashi, a Japanese Fermentation Process.

This is a great time to start thinking about how to set up a composting system and to make the best of all your scraps, whether from the garden or the kitchen. If you don’t know Adam already, this is bound to be not just educational, but also fun!

Our first walk of the season will be on Friday March 28 at the Pinnacle Park Lower Bridge Loop Trails, at the end of Fisher Creek rd in Sylva, NC.  The trailhead is located at the very end of Fisher creek Rd in Sylva, NC. We will be walking along the Bridge Loop Trails, which is a very easy walk that is accessible to many.

Once again, Weekly Wildflower Walks will be meeting on Fridays throughout the season, with a morning session from 9am to 12pm, and an afternoon session from 1pm to 4pm. We will meet at a different location each week, following and chasing the best blooms and locations. Remember that on  our walks The Wildflowers Are the Destination!

All of the Friday Wildflower Walks are offered on a sliding scale of $50-$15 per person, and are capped at 15 people per session. This allows for more people to be able to attend the walks. I ask that attendees pay based on their ability, and on how they value the experience. 

Please confirm your attendance at each week's walk by sendinig an email to bigelownc@gmail.com or by cliking the link on my website. Payment can be cash, check, or online through Venmo
