Gardening at Carolina Trace
​Welcome to Carolina Trace. Gardening is a favorite pastime for many residents. There are local garden clubs that offer opportunities for gardeners to gather and share:
  • Carolina Trace Garden Club
  • Lake Trace Garden Club (Federated)
  • Late Bloomers Garden Club
  • Nature Lovers Garden Club
Lee County Extension Master Gardeners will be able to provide contact information for the local garden clubs that you may be interested in joining. They may be contacted via email year round: lcemgvol1@gmail.com.
The Lee County Extension Center is also a source for gardening information about flowers, lawn care or vegetable gardening. You may contact the Extension Center at 919.775.5624 and speak to an Extension Master Gardener Volunteer during April-October on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. You may also access information about gardening through their website: https://lee.ces.ncsu.edu/.

Soil sampling is an important part of gardening. North Carolina State University provides free analysis of your soil during most months of the year. Contact the Extension Center for more information about performing your own soil sampling through the center.

​Since Carolina Trace was established back in the seventies, there has been a community club for folks who enjoy fishing in our 315-acre Lake Trace. There were yearly contests with prizes for biggest bass and crappie.

Long time TUFF Directors Barry Butzer, Carl Woodard and other TUFF members participated in the “Hooked on Fishing, Not on Drugs” (HOFNAD) Program from the national Future Fishermen Foundation which was funded by a grant from the Department of Justice. The Lee County Sheriff’s Department and TUFF members would visit various ponds with the Lee County Boys & Girls Club and provide instruction and bait.  Ponds included Mary Perry’s pond off Edwards Road, “Doc” Howard’s pond off Wildlife Road and three farm ponds off Chris Cole Road. Although the HOFNAD program was eliminated due to federal budget cuts, the TUFF Club continues to offer fishing lessons to Sanford community youth groups, as well as the Trace community.
