BirdFest

Balsam Mountain Trust is hosting its 7th annual World Migratory Bird Day Festival, BirdFest, on Saturday, May 11th, 2024 from 10:00am-4:00pm, which celebrates birds and encourages participants to protect them 365 days a year. This year’s theme, “Protect Insects, Protect Birds,” highlights the important relationship between a thriving invertebrate population and a healthy bird community, especially in spring when insects provide crucial protein for growing nestlings. We hope you will join in celebrating all things bird-related at the Monteith Farmstead and Community Park in Dillsboro, NC this May.
