National Public Lands Day Was a Success!
On Saturday, September 24 volunteers around the country came out to celebrate National Public Lands Day. They collected trash, cleared trail, removed invasive plants and restored historic buildings, playgrounds and school yards.
We are tallying up the final numbers of participants and sites, so if you hosted a volunteer event but never registered, please email us at
npld@neefusa.org today!
Thank you to everybody that organized and participated.
