South Wake Conservationists

SWC is partners with Wake Audubon’s ongoing project to conserve and support the natural heritage of a unique nature park in Fuquay Varina, the Carroll Howard Johnson Environmental Education Park. The NC Natural Heritage Progam lists portions of this site as 7 out of 10 for natural diversity, which is exceptional for a suburban/urban location. Our first effort this year was incredibly effective and we look forward to the second one being the same.

Our teams cut or pull the invasives and haul them out by the parking lot. Fuquay Varina Public Works loads all this into large trailers and hauls it away as they are filled.  Last time, we filled two trailers, and there is plenty more to go! 

We suggest that folks wear long sleeved shirts and pants and bring gloves and water. Tools are provided, but feel free to bring any favorite personal tools as well.

If you miss this event, no worries our third and last invasive removal will be on Nov. 18, 2026 at the same time.
