# Event Details - **Event Name**: DAY 2: At the Forest’s Edge: A River Cruise into the Magic of Sledge Forest - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 15 Mar, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sun, 15 Mar, 2026 at 02:00 pm - **Event Description**: See Sledge Forest as few ever have—on a journey up the NE Cape Fear Rive that sustains it—while helping carry forward the work to defend it.About this EventAt The Forest’s Edge is a rare river journey event along the western edge of Sledge Forest—one of the most ecologically significant and least seen landscapes in our region.While Sledge Forest itself is privately owned and largely inaccessible, the NE Cape Fear River runs alongside it, shaping its ecology and quietly sustaining the life within. From the water, participants will experience the forest as few ever have in all its expansive, intact, and profoundly inspiring beauty.We've partnered with Wilmington Water Tours for this guided boat trip offered as an invitation to witness what is at stake—and to support the community-led work to protect it. All proceeds from this event directly benefit Save Sledge Forest, helping fund the ongoing legal, educational, and organizational efforts required to defend this irreplaceable place.This is not just a tour, it's a rare opportunity of access, perspective, and shared responsibility—made possible by the river, and by those willing to stand with the forest.Special thanks to Wilmington Water Tours; Stephen Axhelm, our speakers and our amazing volunteers.A light lunch will be provided.BE SURE TO CHECK OUT OUR AWESOME MERCH - CLICK ON THE "ADD ON" TAB WHEN PURCHASING YOUR TICKET!

It is a local natural treasure spread across over 4000 acres in Castle Hayne, NCSledge Forest is recognized as harboring some of the last, best examples of this ecoregion’s globally significant habitats and biodiversity and yet, it is now under threat of being destroyed forever with the plan to build 4000+ homes for developer profit at public risk.Remaining mostly untouched through 6000 years of habitat evolution, it is a biodiverse community of plants & animals, including 350-year-old pine trees more than 60’ tall and cypress dated more than 500 years, with a vast array of rare and imperiled plants and wildlife that need Sledge Forest as their home.It is considered by the NC Heritage Program to be of National Significance.We believe this local, natural treasure belongs in conservation. We also believe this massive proposed development does not belong in our rural, quiet community and our infrastructure is ill-suited to support it." } ] } ] ```
