Friends Of The Blue Ridge is making blue ridge communities better through celebrating cultural heritage, natural beauty, and our way of life. Eight volunteer chapters across North Carolina and Virginia identify projects such as trail maintenance, playground installation and improvement, and bike rack installation. They also joined together recently for a concert series in Roanoke, raising funds to repair damage done by Hurricane Helene.
