Allies come together to fight Enbridge’s Ridgeline gas pipeline through Obed watersheds

LANCING — Reclaim the Ridge is a weekend of music, nature, fun and action to raise awareness and funds in opposition to Enbridge’s proposed Ridgeline gas pipeline — set to slice across 122 miles of Tennessee and make 162 waterway cuts through tributaries of the Obed Wild and Scenic River system.

Project opponents and the like-minded plan to gather for Reclaim the Ridge Sept. 5-6 at the Lilly Pad Hopyard Brewery for an unforgettable time featuring live music by The Local Honeys, camping, hiking, swimming and giant puppets from the Cattywampus Puppet Council

It all kicks off Friday, Sept. 5 and runs into Saturday afternoon. More details and full music lineup coming soon. Let’s celebrate what we’re fighting to protect. The Festival is organized by Ridgeline Voices and SAGE TN, two grassroots community groups working to protect Tennessee from the proposed Ridgeline gas pipeline, along with Tennessee Citizens for Wilderness Planning (TCWP), Appalachian Voices and the Sierra Club.

Date and time: Sept. 5 at 3 p.m. until Sept. 6 at 5 p.m. EDT

Location: Lilly Pad Hopyard Brewery, 920 Ridge Road Lancing, Tennessee 37770
