Saturday, 28 September, is being observed as National Public
Lands Day, considered to be the nation’s largest, single-day volunteer
effort for public lands (federal, state, regional, and municipal). This
year’s observance is the 26th Anniversary of National Public Lands Day.
During this annual day of caring for public lands, volunteers assist at parks and other public lands by collecting invasive plants; building and maintaining trails; planting trees, shrubs and other native plants; removing trash from trails and other places; and offering a number of other services.
Among NPLD efforts currently listed in New England, volunteers plan to be working at two sites in Connecticut, two sites in Maine, three sites in Massachusetts, one site in New Hampshire, two sites in Rhode Island, and four sites in Vermont.
