Fearrington Village is part of the Chatham County Craft Beverages & Country Inns Trail. \nAUTHENTIQUE VIN AND THOMAS MEUNIER \nAuthentique Vin is an importer of family-produced French wines serving the Southeast US. Initially based in Carrboro\, NC\, owner Thomas Meunier currently lives in France with his family so he can be close at hand with the winemakers with whom he works. \n“I started my journey in the wine world over 20 years ago in my native region of the Loire Valley. During 6 vintages\, I worked at a biodynamic winery in Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil\, growing Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc. This experience\, deep in the heart of a winemaker family\, shaped my philosophy of wine and kept me humble until this day. When building my portfolio\, my quest has always been to find life in the wines I pick\, this vibrancy that makes each bottle a revelation. I know through my experience in the vines that when you respect nature\, it delivers in the bottle and makes each wine unique because it shows the sense of a place. \nI have kept this understanding first while building my selection\, finding true winegrowers that make no concessions with distinctive personalities while Organic certification is not a mandatory criterion to be part of my portfolio\, even though 3/4 of my selection is\, I firmly believe that only the organic path is the one to quality\, delivering better grapes\, offering the best natural balance of the fruit components. I share with my friends winemakers the belief that wine is made in the vineyard and that 90% of the vigneron’s job is done when you bring the ripest grapes in the cellar. I believe in natural wines made with native yeasts and no additives\, but also that sulfites is not our enemy if used with minimal doses after the fermentation… I know each winemaker of my portfolio personally\, have built strong ties and friendship with them\, we grow together sharing this search for excellence by always questioning ourselves to do better.”

DESCRIPTION:Community Organizing for Racial Equity (CORE) welcomes you to join them for their Spring 2025 Racial Equity Fundamentals Workshop\, CORE’s most requested workshop across the state\, on Sat\, Mar 15\, 8am-3pm. This workshop is designed to initiate conversations about race and racism while exploring methods to drive systemic change\, shift power\, and promote community healing in the movement toward collective liberation. It’s presented in a series of four modules over one day\, with a facilitated discussion on equity as outlined below: \n\nEquity Fundamentals – Having a shared language brings attendees to a joint understanding of equity and how it is related to systemic racism and oppression. This module offers participants information on core concepts\, terminology\, and theories to show how racism has been constructed and maintained.\nAn Historical Examination –  In this module we will briefly examine the historical impact of racism and the current implications today. Knowing and understanding what systemic racism has meant throughout history allows us to explain today’s current implications.\nWhat is Power? – Participants will discover the value of looking beneath the surface to employ our sagacious mind. When sagacity is used effectively\, participants will be able to empathetically consider different perspectives to communicate and lead more equitably and to uncover solutions that ensure shared values remain intact.\nEquity in Action: Community Organizing – This module explores community organizing principles with a racial equity lens.  Applicable strategies to take action in your community are shared.\n\nLunch and light breakfast will be provided.

SUMMARY:"The Book of Flaco" with David Gessner and Nina de Gramont
DESCRIPTION:Join McIntyre’s Books for this Author Event\, “The Book of Flaco\,” with David Gessner and Nina de Gramont on Sat\, Mar 15\, 11am-12pm. Discover the story of Flaco\, the Eurasian eagle-owl who escaped from Central Park Zoo and captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of followers from around the world. \nBOOK SUMMARY \n\n\n\nThis is a parable of freedom\, wildness\, and our urban ecosystems. Flaco has been dubbed “the world’s most famous bird.” From the night in February of 2023 when vandals cut a hole in his cage until his death a year later in a courtyard on the Upper West Side\, his is a story full of adventure and unexpected turns. \nNature writer David Gessner chronicles the year-long odyssey of Flaco and the human drama that followed the owl who captured the imaginations of New Yorkers and people worldwide. Though he’d spent his life in a cage\, Flaco learned to survive in New York City by eating rats\, squirrels\, and birds. He was an immigrant coming from elsewhere to make it in the big city. Central Park\, the island of green in an urban sea\, was his new home territory. \nFlaco’s urban adventure brought controversy\, pitting those who felt he should be returned to the zoo’s safety against those who created the “Free Flaco” movement. The birding world was fractured over the ethics of the online sharing of his location that brought hordes of observers to view him each day. And his end—with a grim necropsy revealing Flaco had suffered a viral infection from eating pigeons and had multiple rodenticides in his system—serves as a Rachel Carson-esque warning about the harm we’ve done to our urban environments\, inspiring the passage of long-sought legislation protecting urban birds and regulations meant to reduce the use of rodenticides in New York City. \n\n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nDavid Gessner is the author of thirteen books that blend a love of nature\, humor\, memoir\, and environmentalism\, including the New York Times bestselling All the Wild That Remains. Gessner is a professor at the University of North Carolina Wilmington\, where he also founded the literary magazine Ecotone. His magazine publications include pieces in the New York Times Magazine\, Outside\, Orion\, and many other magazines. In 2017\, he hosted the National Geographic Explorer show The Call of the Wild. \nNina de Gramont is the author of the acclaimed Meet Me at the River and Every Little Thing in the World as well as the story collection Of Cats and Men and the adult novel The Gossip of Starlings. Her work has appeared in Redbook\, Harvard Review\, Nerve\, and Seventeen. \nFearrington Village is part of the Chatham County Craft Beverages & Country Inns Trail.
