In the High Country, the month of July means fireworks, the Highland Games, and the Roundup for the Middle Fork Greenway!

The Middle Fork Greenway is a multi-use recreational trail being developed to connect Blowing Rock to Boone, providing residents and visitors of all ages safe and healthy access to the natural world while protecting the environment and strengthening our local economy. 

The Middle Fork Greenway is a Blue Ridge Conservancy project in partnership with the Town of Blowing Rock, Town of Boone and Watauga County.  With the help of many partners and driven by input from community members, the Middle Fork Greenway is coming to life segment by segment.

On this week's episode of Mind Your Business, we visit with Wendy Patoprsty, Director of the Middle Fork Greenway, as she provides updates on the project and details about how Blue Ridge Conservancy hopes to leverage this year's roundup proceeds.

Mind Your Business is produced weekly by the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce, thanks to a partnership between High Country Radio and Appalachian Commercial Real Estate.
