I followed the recycling from curbside to the recycler's warehouse to find out where it goes, and how it gets there for Asheville's the Mountain Xpress.

A mysterious property owner prepared to develop property on Cumberland Island National Seashore off Georgia's Southeast coast, against the National Park Service's policy. I investigated to find out who it was, and why it was causing outrage for Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine.

A leader amongst mid-size cities trying to limit their limit landfill growth, I looked into the state of Asheville's move towards municipal composting for the Mountain Xpress.

As a strain of medical marijuana became legal in Florida, plant nurseries jockeyed for the right to be one of the state's licensed growers. The first permitting process unfairly left some growers out of work, as I reported in Folio Weekly.

Georgia Pacific was dumping toxic waste into a tributary of the St. John's River in Northeast Florida for decades. They built a pipeline directly to the river in an attempt to limit the impact of its pollution. When a scientist discovered the pipeline may not have worked, the company attempted to silence him. I investigated for Folio Weekly.

The growth of Farmer's Markets in Northeast Florida led shoppers to question which markets were being honest about where their products came from, as I explored in Folio Weekly.

Mainstay environmentalists in Northeast Florida teamed up to revive a historic fish camp in Crescent Beach. I wrote about it for the St. Augustine Record.

As the City of St. Augustine's much anticipated 450th birthday celebration approached, ancestors of the area's earliest inhabitants led a protest of the celebration of their people's genocide, as I reported in Folio Weekly.

A high school journalist was silenced by her school when she wanted to report on pending medical marijuana legislation and what it would mean for her community. I wrote about it while covering schools for The Ledger.
