Join us to learn about Conserving Carolina’s innovative floodplain restoration projects along North Carolina’s French Broad River, focusing on their role in mitigating flood risks, improving biodiversity and enhancing water quality. Using real-world examples, such as the Pleasant Grove and Kings Bridge restorations, we’ll explore strategies to restore natural functions to floodplains and build resilience against extreme weather events like Tropical Storm Helene.
Join us in the SECU Daily Planet Theater or watch the livestream on YouTube Live.
