In 2008 Mecklenburg County voters approved a $250 million bond to improve and expand parks. One result was construction of a 77-acre urban forest to be known as Evergreen Nature Preserve. It is named after the adjacent Evergreen Cemetery on Central Avenue. The preserve contains a variety of habitats and attracts many migratory birds during the fall and spring. Mecklenburg County Park and Rec holds occasional festivals celebrating migratory birds at Evergreen. For example, in cooperation with Reedy Creek Nature Preserve, May 1, 2010 was declared International Migratory Birds Day at the Evergreen Nature Preserve. Evergreen Nature Preserve is directly adjacent to Sheffield Neighborhood Park with entrances available by foot from Tarrington Avenue to dedicated trails and also from the other side at the Norland Road entrance that includes a dedicated, small parking lot  which has a small outdoor covered shelter with easy, dedicated, clearly marked walking Trails for Visitors. <ref> Mecklenburg County Park & Rec
