In this episode, Brad Halfacre is joined by Jonathan Nelms to shine a light on the work of the Friends of Cummins Falls State Park—a passionate volunteer group dedicated to preserving one of Tennessee’s most beautiful natural treasures. They discuss the park’s growth since its founding in 2012, the group's role in expanding and making it more accessible (including new wheelchair-friendly overlooks), and their ongoing conservation efforts like exotic plant removal. You'll also hear how funding cuts impacted their mission—and how the community stepped up to help. With upcoming events in October and November, plus info on permits and how to join the cause, this episode is your guide to getting involved with a group that keeps Cummins Falls wild and wonderful.
