TLC nature preserves are still open! Stay 6 feet apart, take all trash with you, and avoid overcrowding the parking lots.
Update: TLC has made the difficult decision to postpone all in-person organized events, hikes, and workdays through April. We have also postponed the Grand Opening of Bailey and Sarah Williamson Preserve. More details here.

Interested in learning more about how TLC cares for our conserved properties? TLC’s Associate Director of Stewardship Matt Rutledge and Stewardship Associate Caroline Durham will be talking about what stewardship means and how TLC takes care of our protected lands during our third Conservation Conversations webinar.
Join us every Wednesday evening to learn more about the work conservationists are doing to make the Triangle a healthier and more vibrant region. You will have an opportunity to connect with the speaker through the chat functionality and while we hope to answer most of your questions, please note that we may not be able to answer all of them in the time allotted.
Please register for this event below! We will share the Zoom meeting information to registered participants via email. Event registration will close at 3 p.m. on April 8. We’re looking forward to connecting with you all and sharing information on conservation during this time of social distancing!
Save the date! #NatureNeedsTLC on April 22!
This Earth Day, support local conservation to help unlock $25,000 to accelerate the conservation of the lands you love. TLC is doubling the pace of conservation to safeguard clean water, support local farms and food, protect wildlife habitat, and connect people to nature. A generous longtime TLC supporter has offered to match all donations during this 24-hour challenge to help us meet our bold conservation goals. Mark your calendars for April 22!
In light of the latest guidelines from the CDC about COVID-19 and postponing gatherings of more than 50 people for the next 8 weeks, TLC has postponed the Grand Opening of Bailey and Sarah Williamson Preserve, which was scheduled for April 25.
We also realized that after making the difficult decision to postpone our March and early April volunteer workdays, it would be more difficult for us to prepare the preserve for its opening day. Our amazing volunteers are an integral part of the Grand Opening of Williamson Preserve (and all our work!) helping to build trails, clear debris, and finish all the other tasks needed to prepare the preserve for its opening day. It’s never been more clear that we can’t do our work without our loyal and hardworking volunteers.
We will be rescheduling the celebration and will be in touch with a new date in the coming weeks. While it was a difficult to decision to make, we look forward to gathering together at a future date, and we know that thanks to our community’s support, we will continue to do what we can to prepare the preserve for its future opening day.
Save the date for the Grand Opening of Bailey and Sarah Williamson Preserve, TLC’s largest preserve in Wake County! We’ll be celebrating the public opening of these 405 acres all day long on April 25 with local food and drinks, music, activities for children, guided walks and bike rides, and more!
