Green Jamboree this Saturday
Triangle Land Conservancy’s Green Jamboree is this SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 3 to 7 pm!!!
This year’s Green Jamboree celebrates 25 years TLC! How appropriate that Green Jamboree is being held at the Irvin Farm.
Logan Irvin was one of TLC’s founding board members in 1983 and a vocal proponent of the stewardship responsibilities of that new organization. When Logan died in 1984, TLC named the stewardship endowment in his honor: the Logan Irvin Fund. Before his death, Logan and his wife, Elinor, decided they would leave their 169-acre Orange County farm to TLC in their will. Elinor passed away in January 2007 after a long illness and TLC has been working steadily since to honor the memories of Logan and Elinor by bringing this once vibrant farm back to life.
Green Jamboree marks the first public opening of the Irvin Farm. Please come out and help us make it a special day.
