A mule packer ranch in North Carolina is lending some helping “hooves” and delivering much-needed supplies and first aide to communities in the mountains who have been impacted by the damage from Hurricane Helene.
“Busy morning as we loaded lots of equipment, supplies, and MULES, to leave for WNC! Please know that we appreciate EVERY kind word, gesture of support, and all that are partnering with us to HELP all that we can!” the Mountain Mule Packer Ranch wrote in a post on Facebook.
“We will be setting up a staging area and beginning to assist this afternoon and will be bringing up additional loads of supplies once mules are in place!”
The group took off for Weaverville, North Carolina, on Sunday, where they were able to drop off a large supply stash. They then moved on to Montreat on Tuesday. They also partnered with the “Cajun Navy,” which is another group of civilian volunteers, according to the organization.
