A Bit of Sunshine on a Greenway in Cary, North Carolina


Town of Cary Greenway System


If you like being outside walking/hiking then do we ever have a treat for you!  Come check out this Cary, North Carolina's Swift Creek Recycled Greenway.


Town of Cary Greenway System

When you set out to take a stroll on this Cary trail you'll be walking on one of the most forward thinking sustainable trails in the nation.


The Swift Creek Greenway is the nation's first greenway to be built COMPLETELY with recycled products.   Can you say green?!?  Cary NC sure does!!
Town of Cary Swift Creek Greenway

The 1.03 mile trail is constructed of recycled asphalt, and even the storm water pipes are made from recycled Town of Cary Swift Creek Greenwayplastic bags.  The multi-purpose polyethylene plastic, (HDPE = High Density Polyethylene) is commonly found in items such as grocery bags, detergent bottles and milk jugs. 

So now whenever you use these items, think about all the great new products that can be made from them when you finished...  and PLEASE join us and choose to RECYCLE!

Loved this sign...Town of Cary Swift Creek Greenway

We're also pretty excited to learn that a portion of the trail is under construction with plans of expansion! 
Can't wait to stroll along the gorgeous addition when it's complete.




We hope to see you out and about in Wake County, NC!

It is gorgeous and it looks like a nice place for a walk. I'm about to leave for a walk--but mine involves sidewalk (and a little ocean)

Love the sustainable trail. How smart is that?  I too enjoyed the sign - "It's second nature." Cute, and I've never seen it before. Why not, I'm wondering? 

We were out on the local trails this morning too. Looks like Team St. Peter is having a good Labor Day weekend. :)
