As far back as the Cherokee Indians, the French Broad Watershed has attracted people with its stunning natural beauty and clean water. For the first time in over three decades, the river is declining and threatened as never before.
Because of this critical moment in the history of the French Broad River, RiverLink and Sweetwater Beer and working to Save the French Broad.
For the month of August numerous participating restaurants, bars, and retail stores are partnering with RiverLink and Sweetwater Brewery to help raise money to further RiverLink’s mission to make the French Broad River a place to live work and play. Each business is selling paper fish with the slogan “I gave my liver to save the river,” and t-shirts with the businesses logo on the front and the “Save the French Broad” logo on the back.
Pick up a fish or shirt at one of these participating businesses: Eblen Short Stop (8 locations), Mellow Mushroom, Wildwings, Rocket Club, Square Root, Scully’s, Hannah Flanagins, Westville Pub, Lobster Trap, Bier Garden, Tourist Stadium, Orange Peel, 12 Bones, Greenlife, and Biltmore Farms.
