Annual Bluebell Island Ramble, March 25
The South Cumberland Regional Land Trust (SCRLT) will be hosting the annual Bluebell Island Ramble starting at 10 a.m., Saturday, March 25.
Meet on the Elk River side of the driveway to Tyson Foods (13811 David Crockett Highway/US Hwy 64 just south of I-24 exit 127) and we’ll walk approximately 1/4 mile along the river and explore the bountiful spring wildflowers on the island. All ages are welcome. There is a short crossing over a stream on a temporary bridge to get to the island.
Founded in 1993, SCRLT’s mission is to conserve and protect ecologically unique land in the South Cumberland area such as Bluebell Island. SCRLT has also purchased and established conservation easements on over 1000 acres in and around Mitchell Cove and Shakerag Hollow, the latter of which was subsequently donated to the University of the South.
Updates and other information will be available closer to the event at SCRLT’s Facebook and Instagram pages, at http://www.scrlt.org or email at <southcumberlandrlt@gmail.com>
