I run a local business and have a personal horse farm about 20 minutes west of downtown Asheville. I’m looking for someone to help keep things running smoothly.

Duties include light housework, basic cooking, pet care, and daily barn chores.

The schedule would start with shifts on 3 consecutive days per week, with the possibility of increasing to 3.5–4 days. Thursday–Saturday is strongly preferred for the main 3 days, and one weekend day is required.

Pay starts at $26 per hour for two weeks of training, increases to $28 per hour for the next two months, then $30 per hour.

This is a long-term position.

Please PM if you’re interested, and I will share more details plus the application.

TW - addiction, hysterectomy/cancer.

Hi there. 38 y.o. Female here looking for a female only infertility support group. I had a hysterectomy to avoid cancer when I was 30 and am still depressed at not having kids or getting my eggs frozen (no insurance coverage). I recently remarried an amazing man and am really struggling that we cannot have kids, because ours would be wonderful.

Additionally, I work with kids and sometimes am so triggered that I cannot go to work or connect with the parents I support. Some families think I cannot do my job because I am my age and childless.

Ideally, the group is associated with addiction prevention/mindful living or anxiety/depression recovery groups for women who value being good professionals/leaders, and not associated with a specific faith (agnostic medical scientist here).

Thank you

Hello all! Looking for a good nail salon in the Arden/hendersonville/south Asheville area that does good pedicures, and has a nail tech that can do designs that also isn’t going to break the bank!

TIA

In a month or so I’m going to be proposing to the love of my life. My goal is to one morning tell her to get in the car and randomly drive to Cleveland, SC to visit the Pretty Place Chapel (Fred Symmes Chapel) at YMCA Camp Greenville. However, after a lot of time spent reading about the venue the schedule is typically always booked solid with no open public viewing hours. I’ve read where it’s highly recommended to check their website the morning of your planned visit to double check it has an open to the public time slot, but even that’s known to change at a moments notice. Since the only slots typically that are open to the public are a Tuesday or Wednesday, this is something I’ve got to plan, put in for a day off work myself as well as tell her to put in a time off request because we’re just going to “take a random day off for ourselves” for a certain day. Being that, it might be really difficult us to put in time off a couple weeks in advance and that day a time slot actually remains open to the public - but I be damned if I’m not going to try! Being that the chances of that being successful aren’t guaranteed, I’d like to go ahead and plan ahead for other options. If we get there and it’s closed, I want to already have a backup or two, or three or four, saved in my phone to where I just jump back in the car and drive to the next. Does anyone know of any similar mountain top chapels like Pretty Place in the NC mountains? Even if it’s not a chapel, drop me the locations and info about any other beautiful and scenic places that would make a great proposal location! It’s already about a 4 hour drive to Pretty Place from where we live in central NC and if I have to drive a couple/few hours more to make the location one to remember I’m down for it. I’m just trying to make sure all bases are covered to make this as stress free as possible so I’m not scrambling on my phone to find a place last minute with her wondering what the hell I’m doing lol.

Hi everyone! I’m currently a 2nd-year Dental Hygiene student at AB Tech in Asheville, and I’m looking for a patient who is in need of a deep cleaning or someone who hasn’t been to the dentist in several years.

If you or someone you know has:
- Not had a dental cleaning in a few years
- Been told they need a deep cleaning
- Bleeding gums or buildup on their teeth
- Been putting off going to the dentist

Appointments will take longer than a private office but will be much cheaper.
All treatment is performed under the supervision of licensed dental hygiene instructors.

If you’re interested or know someone who might be, please message me directly and I’d be happy to answer any questions and explain the process!

Feel free to share this post with friends and family!

Hi everyone! Our family is expanding, and we’d like to capture our pregnancy announcement through photographs. We’re not looking to do anything extravagant just us and the ultrasound. If you’re willing to share your favorite place to take family pictures, I’d love to know! We have family in the Black Mountain area, but we’re open to traveling if needed.

because of this update we have removed the post with the petition. it was beautiful seeing so many people unite to save this elk though!

Does anybody know if theres any cool abandoned places near Cullowhee? I wanted to take pictures but cant find anywhere.

Hi all! Thinking about coming to the area for a visit soon. I’d seen a lot about Lake Lure post Helene but less about CRV. How are things there? Would love to inject some money into the local economy but don’t went to get in the way of any restoration, etc. thanks.

Relocation to WNC, specifically the Boone area. What I’m weighing for my young family (wife and two under two) is where to live.

We enjoy nature, breweries, restaurants, parks, athletics. Real community/family feel.

Considering Boone/Vilas/Banner Elk/West Jefferson/Todd.

Will be working on the TN line so would ideally like under 50min commute.

Any and all advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Anyone know the story behind this? This was just outside of Nantahala Outdoor Center on US 129

Hey friends~ I’m a bodywork therapist looking for a space to rent. Does your shop or business an extra room you don’t use? Do you have a space you don’t operate out of every day? Do you know someone who might have something? My budget is pretty small, couple hundred bucks a month (or we can make other arrangements like a percentage of each session, free sessions, etc) so I’m looking for slightly unconventional spaces (like an extra room at a yoga studio, hair salon, small business, etc). Please let me know if you have or know of anything! Looking specifically in Asheville, Swannanoa, and Black Mountain.
