Urban Wilderness Origins

In this inaugural episode, host John Becker brings on Carol Evans to talk about the genesis of Knoxville’s Urban Wilderness – a recreational, cultural, and historic preservation initiative launched by Legacy Parks Foundation in 2008. Knoxville’s Urban Wilderness incorporates over 1,000 forested acres along downtown’s south waterfront and is a spectacular outdoor adventure area where you can hike, bike, climb, paddle or just wander in the woods – all within the heart of the city.

Carol currently serves as the Executive Director of Legacy Parks Foundation.
