Come test ride a Cargo bike!
This event is for the bike-curious who are interested in test riding a cargo bike. This includes parents who are thinking about riding with their kids and might benefit from test riding other parents’ kid friendly rigs. Christopher M. Craig, Nanci Vessels Mackey and I will be there with electric and non-electric assist bikes to for you to try, including a CETMA Largo, Bullit, Yuba Mundo, Yuba Spicy Curry and various combinations of commuter bikes and kid seats. This event happening as part of the Asheville Cargo Bike Gang, the Facebook group.
It will be fun, casual, and family friendly and this is not a sales event! We simply want to spread the word about how fun biking on a cargo bike can be – kids or no kids! The location is the blank lot on the corner of N Liberty and Hillside.
Don’t miss out– you can’t test ride bikes like these anywhere else in Asheville.
And If you think your kids are too heavy to ride around town, come check out what we’ve learned about electric assist.

Annual Rotarians Against Hunger Initiative Meal Packing Event
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY!
Mar 21st – Annual Rotarians Against Hunger Meal Packing Event at Reuter Family YMCA in Biltmore Park Town Square. Rotary Clubs across WNC have been working together to fighting hunger through Rotarians Against Hunger since 2010, and the goal of this event is to package 350,000 nutritious meals including black beans, brown rice and white rice that will be distributed throughout Western North Carolina by MANNA FoodBank and the YMCA of WNC Community Health Nutrition Outreach Program. The meal packaging event is a fun, family-friendly and immensely rewarding experience where people of all ages can participate – individuals, families, church groups, civic organizations and businesses – come together, and package nutritious meals to help feed our neighbors.
Additionally a portion of the funds raised will go toward distributing seeds internationally through Seed Programs International. Seed Programs International, a non-governmental humanitarian organization which works worldwide provides vegetable seeds to impoverished communities in developing countries enabling them to grow some of their own food. The organization not only provides the seed, but gives expertise and hands-on assistance on how to successfully plant and harvest. This is a long-term effort to help cure global hunger.
