What We Do
Hemlock Bluffs
History:
Get Involved
In the 1970's a group was formed to protect the land known today as Hemlock Bluffs Nature Preserve.  WIth lots of determination and hard work, the Hemlock Bluffs Preservation Society was successful in their plan to protect the nature preserve under the jurisdiction of the State of North Carolina. In 1995, the Cary Women's Club provided infrastructure and officers to create a support organization for the Preserve and the Stevens Nature Center. The founding members of the Hemlock Bluffs Preservation Society approached the Cary Women's Club and suggested that they use the original group name and articles of incorporation, since the group had never officially disbanded. With the consistent support of the Cary Women's Club, the Hemlock Bluffs Preservation Society funded exhibits, resources and equipment, and support for the organization grew.
In 2001, the board adopted the name "Friends of Hemlock Bluffs" to emphasize the group's mission of supporting the Hemlock Bluffs Nature Preserve and its environmental education efforts.
Today, the Friends' support efforts have expanded to include many exciting programs and activities. On the left side of the screen you can click on the "What We Do" page for more details on these, or go to "Get Involved" to find out how you can help support the Hemlock Bluffs Nature Preserve.
