National Public Lands Day is the largest single-day volunteer event for public lands. Our public lands are special places that provide recreation, education, and relaxation opportunities. Held yearly on the fourth Saturday in September, National Public Lands Day is an opportunity to get outdoors and help maintain and restore treasured places. 

There are many ways to volunteer on National Public Lands Day—and every day. Visit the website to learn how to volunteer on clean-up days, patrol public lands to look for invasive species, help save sea turtles, and more. Explore and find volunteer opportunities in your area.
