National Public Lands Day 2024 is a statewide event that provides unique opportunities for Minnesota Master Naturalist Volunteers to participate in our largest single day of service. Locations across the state will have MNats and others out helping to make Minnesota a better place!

Friends and family are welcome to participate but must be registered to participate. Everyone will sign a photo release upon site registration. All participants will receive a free NPLD-branded item and a day pass to a national park as a thank-you for participating.

Volunteers will staff tables at the Open House- creating interactive stations for refuge visitors, hosting inside the building, leading short hikes, interpreting the pollinator garden project, and other duties as assigned. Not a physical project.

Register by September 16th to receive some swag!
