River Cane Restoration (Raleigh)

January 24, 2026 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Join NCWF South Wake Conservationists Chapter and Raleigh Parks for a river cane restoration workday! River cane, a native bamboo, is a woody grass native to floodplains of the southeastern US. River cane is an ecologically and culturally important plant that helps improve water quality and prevent erosion by stabilizing the banks of waterways. This plant is also used for basket making and other tribal arts. Unfortunately, river cane now occupies only 2% of its former extent in the US!

Join us for this workday to help restore river cane at Walnut Creek Wetland Park by removing invasive species which outcompetes river cane for resources. By restoring river cane along Walnut Creek, volunteers will help create habitat for wildlife and improve water quality in Walnut Creek.
