In our opinion, St. Patrick’s Day is a good enough excuse to have a pint. (Who are we kidding? We don’t need an excuse!)
Tonight, however, a special event at EarthFare in West Asheville will offer an even better reason to raise our glasses. Local favorites Pisgah Brewing Company will sell pints of their organic beer and donate the proceeds to the Southern Appalachian Biodiversity Project.
The beer flows from 6 to 7:30 p.m. tonight.
RiverLink’s Adopt-a-Stream teams are coordinating several river cleanups in March, and we need your help! Come out and get your feet wet while you help get trash out of our waterways! All supplies are provided. Experienced boaters and individuals with tools to retrieve trash from the tree limbs and on the banks are encouraged to participate.Â

Here’s the lowdown, from the park officials themselves:
