Living Green Fest
September 18, 2016 at James Island County Park
For 9 years, the Carolina Green Fair has provided the community with education and resources for protecting and preserving our natural environment. In 2016, CCPRC is expanding the festival to include more health and wellness information and activities. To more aptly represent this change, the event has been renamed as the “Living Green Fest.” We will still be offering the same programs and activities as in the past, but with the addition of resources to help us live a more healthy and happier lifestyle.
Living Green Fest features conservation and health & wellness education through fun and inventive demonstrations, interactive play and music, and education shared by experts in their field. Come celebrate good environmental stewardship, healthy living, and “being green” while enjoying food, music, and Lowcountry artisans!
The 9th annual Living Green Fest continues its mission to educate and encourage South Carolinians to use environmentally friendly products, services and technologies. As the premier festival sponsor, Charleston County’s Environmental Management Department will highlight the County’s green initiatives like recycling and composting, and also educate residents on the many offerings available to make their homes and businesses more eco-friendly.
Popular TIDELINES columnist Chef Celia Cerasoli has sent us this month’s recipe for her Daddy’s Pasta all’Amatriciana.
In remembrance of the town of Amatrice that was devastated by last week’s earthquake, Celia wants to share her Dad’s favorite recipe, which comes from this town on the outskirts of Rome.
As disaster struck this medieval town, they were preparing for the festival commemorating this delicious dish. Tradition calls for quanciale, or pork jowl, but pancetta, which is easier to use, also works. Although this dish is usually made with spaghetti or buccatini, she prefers short pasta… especially “rigate” which helps hold the sauce.

Cathy Haynes, Chief of Operations of Charleston County Emergency Management Department on 30 August 2016 has released the following:
“Tropical Depression Nine is located about 340 miles west of Key West, Florida and is moving west-northwest at 7 mph. TD Nine has maximum sustained winds of 35 mph. There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. TD Nine is expected to turn northwest today followed by a turn to the north-northwest tonight before turning north-northeast on Wednesday. According to discussions with NWS Charleston this morning, the main effects are expected to remain offshore, but that is dependent on how close the system comes to the coast. Locally heavy rainfall, shallow coastal flooding, high risk for rip currents, swells, and possible tornadoes.
EMD will continue to monitor and send out updates as the situation changes.”![[Image of 5-day forecast and coastal areas under a warning or a watch]](https://i0.wp.com/www.nhc.noaa.gov/storm_graphics/AT09/refresh/AL0916W5_NL+gif/152206W5_NL_sm.gif?resize=305%2C244)

The National Weather Service in Charleston has once again issued a warning about rip currents. With the threat of tropical depressions near our coast, we should probably heed this warning for the rest of the week.
We don’t have lifeguards on our beach, and the wind and wave conditions make the threat of dangerous rip currents more prevalent.

Zugunruhefest birding festival!
Introducing Zugunruhefest – the Southeast’s most comprehensive migration-focused birding festival. Zugunruhe (zu – gun – rue) is a German word derived from Zug (move, migration) and Unruhe (restlessness). This state of restlessness is commonly noted in migratory animals, especially birds.
As fall approaches and instincts prevail, birds are compelled by this silent call to take flight to their wintering grounds. As part of the Atlantic Flyway, the Lowcountry serves as a predictable thoroughfare for migrating raptors and shore birds during fall migration passage. Exploiting the Center’s strategic location, Zugunruhefest will afford numerous opportunities for observers, both novice and advanced, to experience fall migration from an exceptional vantage point.
In addition to onsite vendors and children’s activities, the festival will include three days filled with naturalists, ornithologists, and educators leading bird walks, flight demonstrations, informative lectures and programs, and more. The festival will culminate with a panel of avian experts in a round-table discussion and reception.
Significantly, the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which provides over-arching legal protection for all migratory birds, is marking its Centennial this year, a fitting context and milestone to recognize as we celebrate the wonders of migration.
When: Thursday – Saturday, September 15 – 17, 2016
Where: Avian Conservation Center/Center for Birds of Prey, 4719 North Highway 17, Awendaw, SC 29429. Bird walks, field trips and excursions will take place in additional locations throughout the Lowcountry.
Admission: Fees vary depending on activities chosen. For a complete schedule of activities with pricing, please visit www.thecenterforbirdsofprey.org/zugunruhefest or call 843.971.7474 to have a schedule emailed to you.
