Green Energy Park is a Jackson gem

To the Editor:

Jackson County truly has a hidden gem in its midst, the Green Energy Park. This innovative county program is based in Dillsboro and, for the most part, goes unnoticed by the average citizen.

Recently, my husband took a blacksmithing/knife course at this facility and it was a huge success. The blacksmith was informative, provided individual attention and instilled in all a beginning skill and love for the art that they can build upon in the future. We’re hoping there will be lots more classes in the future.

Kudos to Timm Muth and the rest of the staff at Jackson County Green Energy.
