Until recently, this was the site of a gravel pit, and then a construction landfill. Since activity on this site has ceased, Mother Nature has moved in, slowly restoring the area to a more wild state. Many small birds and animals now call this place home. SUWC members are working to enhance this habitat for wild creatures by planting more native species of trees and shrubs, and by encouraging human visitors to walk softly and leave the area undisturbed.

In 2005, in honour of one of the founders of the Sarnia Urban Wildlife Committee, the site was renamed the Art Teasell Wildlife Refuge. It was previously known as the Blackwell Road Refuge. |
