Live music at People's Brewing Company with the Jeff Shepherd and special guest Matt Woods!
Nashville’s Jeff Shepherd is a singer and songwriter with a little bit of extra octane in his bloodstream than your average picker. Jeff's songs are gritty with a punk aesthetic that are well put together and honest that float between country ballad and all out rocker!

Every spring, the invasive plant garlic mustard emerges across our local nature preserves in large numbers. If left unchecked, this weed can change soil chemistry, overtake the forest's understory, and diminish the beautiful display of native ephemeral wildflowers. With your help, the forest understory will be filled with a diverse mix of plants that provide food and shelter to abundant wildlife.
For this year’s effort, NICHES Land Trust will be hosting a series of garlic mustard pulling shifts at local nature preserves within a 10-50 minute drive of Lafayette. This is our organization's single biggest annual volunteer push; if we can manage to fill every volunteer shift it will provide over a thousand volunteer hours during a critically important stewardship window. Please check out our shift dates/locations and sign-up by clicking the link below.All volunteers who register for 2 or more pulling shifts before the end of March will receive this years 'War of the Weeds' T-shirt featuring our top secret garlic mustard pesto recipe on the back!
