Celebrate National Public Lands Day!
Tomorrow (September 28) is National Public Lands Day, the largest single-day volunteer effort for public lands in the U.S.
From national parks, memorials, and monuments, to wildlife refuges, conservation areas, trails, wilderness areas, seashores, lakeshores, and more, public lands are all around us — nearly 40% of the country is public land.
This annual holiday aims to celebrate the connection between people and their community’s natural spaces — here are some ways to join in celebrating:
🏞️ Enjoy a fee-free day at all national parks!
🏞️ Become a volunteer at a local or national park.
🏞️ Grab a clean-up kit and pick up litter in your nearby public lands.
🏞️ Urge your elected officials to protect public lands.
🏞️ Read good news about national parks and public lands.
🏞️ Read a book or watch a documentary about public lands.
🏞️ Learn what Indigenous lands you live on.
🏞️ Learn how to #RecreateResponsibly.
