A no-tiller in the southeast is stepping up big time to help those in need after the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene.

Russell Hedrick shared this video on his Facebook page. The v no-tiller is using drones to deliver food and water to people who are stranded in Asheville and surrounding areas. And he’s been doing this every day since Saturday Sept. 28.

“We’ve made it all the way up here. Got a drone set up, getting it ready. Got our bags, flying the 3 Ts over with speakers to tell people we’re coming. Just so you can get a look at what people are dealing with, I’ll give you a shot (with the video camera), and this isn’t the bad part. I don’t even know how you deal with this.”

“Just so y’all understand, some of these rocks are bigger than my F-350. Everything’s washed out. They’ve been 4 days now without supplies, no contacts, so hopefully it will make their lives a little bit better.” 

Hedrick says he’s seen more people helping each other out over the last few days than he can remember in quite some time. And he’s been impressed by the resiliency of the community.
