Friends of Roan Mountain
Friends of Roan Mountain fosters greater awareness and understanding of the natural, historical, and cultural significance of Roan Mountain. Friends of Roan offers naturalists rallies throughout the year and works with Roan Mountain State Park and the Forest Service on numerous projects.
For the past year, our events have been modified due to Covid. We hope to get back to our usual schedule for the 2021 Fall Roan Mountain Naturalists Rally. Below are links to both the recorded 2021 Winter Roan Mountain Naturalists Rally and the upcoming 2021 Spring Roan Mountain Naturalists Rally.
