Asheville Recycles, Honors Storm Responders, Celebrates Arts and Outdoor Adventures
Published 7 months, 1 week ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Asheville Local Frequency for Sunday, September 14, 2025. As we start off this beautiful late-summer Sunday, the energy around town is high, with locals getting out for both relaxation and action. If you’re heading out today, you might encounter a bit of lingering community buzz from yesterday’s successful Hard 2 Recycle event at A.C. Reynolds High School. Asheville GreenWorks made it easy for residents to drop off all those hard-to-dispose-of items, with volunteers rallying to help everyone declutter and keep recyclables out of our local landfills. If you missed it, don’t worry—GreenWorks runs these events year-round, and you can stay updated by signing up for their newsletter or using the Waste Wizard for immediate recycling solutions. It’s a great reminder that Asheville is committed to sustainability and keeping our mountains beautiful.
Looking ahead, Buncombe County is honoring its storm responders with a delayed government office opening on Wednesday, September 24. If you need to hit the county offices, make a note that doors open at 10 a.m., with libraries at 11. Law enforcement, public safety, and the courthouse stick to their usual hours. This pause is a heartfelt thanks to all those who went above and beyond during Tropical Storm Helene, a recent challenge that saw local agencies step up in a big way.
This week, the arts and music scene is alive and well. Today you can catch Sierra Ferrell and Nikki Lane at Asheville Yards, bringing country tunes to a city that blends Appalachian roots with contemporary flair. Tickets are moving quickly, so if you’re craving live music under the open sky, now’s your chance to join an enthusiastic crowd.
Asheville’s River Arts District is keeping resilience in focus, following the anniversary of Hurricane Helene, with community events and open studios celebrating creativity, perseverance, and connection. Artists and makers continue to open their doors, inviting you to explore galleries, workshops, and interactive happenings all week long. Whether you’re a collector, creator, or casual wanderer, the District has something inspiring to offer.
For those itching for more adventure, nearby ultra-running events and trail races are drawing athletes from across the state, putting the spotlight on Western North Carolina’s rugged trails and scenic beauty. Even if you’re not participating, cheering on runners or enjoying a hike is a great way to keep active and savor the changing season.
Make the most of today’s mild weather if you’re out and about. Whether you’re recycling, catching live tunes, or wandering through Asheville’s creative corners, there’s always a sense of community in the air.
This has been Asheville Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
