Firefly Gathering is a grassroots, community-based nonprofit organization in Western North Carolina that has been providing educational and cultural programming to the Asheville area since 2007. Their mission is to reconnect people in the Southeast with the teachings of the past and engage with the rapidly changing present to co-create a sustainable future through the cyclical sharing of traditional craft and wisdom in community.
Each year, Firefly Gathering hosts the largest earthskills gathering in the country, bringing together hundreds of people in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina. Skilled instructors, artists, musicians, speakers, and thinkers collaborate to expand our capacity to live well with one another and the Earth. Many participants describe the experience as life-changing and return year after year. In addition to the Annual Gathering, Firefly also offers Perennial Workshops throughout the year to make their life-changing skills accessible to more people.
