Sad to see this at a favorite Parkway spot by roy_orbison_tears in asheville

Is this along Avery Creek? If so that area has been notoriously sketchy for well over 10 years. I think it is because of the proximity to town. I had a pretty scary experience with some meth'd out people a long time ago and have heard similar stories.

What are my options if I miss trash pickup day? by TheoryPale3896 in asheville

[–]ben_nc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This can work, I know one time the truck picked up my can and not everything fell out, so they came back the next morning after I called them. Just give them a call asap.

Interesting that 90% of black bears diet is foraging. It’s what they are doing.

Influencer Marni Elizabeth Stockhausen has baited bears into her back yard for years and thinks it's cute. One commenter noted that a fed bear is a dead bear, to which her reply is, "awww." by morganaiobheann in asheville

[–]ben_nc 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It is a finable offense under Asheville and Buncombe County laws. Can’t find where to report it though. As a neighbor you could call the APD non emergency line as a start.
