The Green River Plantation is a beautiful, historic mansion located in Polk County, North Carolina with a Rutherfordton, NC street address. Today, the Green River Plantation sits amid 356 untouched acres in the Western North Carolina foothills. The plantation is open to the public by reservation only, and is available for all types of events. The stately mansion has been lovingly restored and is o

pen for tours daily by reservation only. It was the year 1987 when the current owners, the Cantrell's, took on the restoration project. Ellen Cantrell's grandfather shared the idea with her that he would have liked to have owned this place in his lifetime. She was only 10 years old at the time, but for many years she kept the dream in her heart that maybe one day she might fulfill her grandpa's vision. In 1985 Eugene & Ellen Cantrell viewed the home, but it was not until 1987 that they actually had the opportunity to purchase the estate. Today, the Green River Plantation is owned and maintained by the Cantrell family. Amanda Cantrell, daughter, and her staff at Green River Plantation LLC and Green River Catering, prepare meals for plantation guests. Meals are served by reservation and there must be a group of 10 or more to set up a luncheon or dinner. There are many times that smaller groups may be added together, the holidays are a perfect time for this, because there are so many groups to accommodate. The meals can be served in different areas of the plantation; indoor and outdoor options are available. The plantation offers an array of services from tours of the mansion, weddings, receptions, reunions, church and family gatherings.

The yellow-legged hornet is an invasive species that has not been found in North Carolina, but now is a good time to start keeping an eye out for it. Our Plant Industry Division is asking you to be on the lookout for the insects' early-stage nests and report any sightings.

"The yellow-legged hornet, which is native to Southeast Asia, is especially devastating to honeybees and wild bees," said N.C. Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler. "Residents and beekeepers can help keep a lookout for early stage paper nests that are typically built around eaves of houses, barns, sheds, etc."
