Partnering with the Town of Nashville

A Growing Community, A Growing Vision

The Town of Nashville is growing and expanding, and so is the understanding that citizens who live and work in this community can benefit from green spaces established through conservation efforts. The North Carolina Wildlife & Outdoor Recreation Foundation, in partnership with the Town of Nashville, is dedicated to improving the health and wellness of all who enjoy being part of the community—including the diverse species that call Nashville home.

Why Stoney Creek Matters

Stoney Creek is a valuable natural asset for the town, providing ecological benefits and recreational opportunities. This precious gem meanders through the landscape, providing habitat for numerous terrestrial and aquatic species, some of which are federally listed or are species of greatest conservation need. By undertaking riparian buffer restoration, addressing invasive species, and preserving wetlands, we can enhance the well-being of these species and the entire ecosystem.

Riparian Buffer Restoration

Riparian buffers—the vegetated areas along waterways—filter pollutants, prevent erosion, and provide critical wildlife habitat. Restoring these buffers leaves a legacy for future generations while protecting water quality today.

Invasive Species Mitigation

Invasive plant species like Creeping Charlie can rapidly spread, smothering native plants and disrupting ecosystem balance. Our invasive species management protects native biodiversity and maintains healthy habitats.
