On September 23, 2023, National Environmental Education Foundations (NEEF) will celebrate the 30th annual National Public Lands Day (NPLD) and a renewed commitment to securing a safer and healthier world for everyone for generations to come. For three decades, NPLD has united communities in the care and celebration of our nation’s public lands. What began with a single federal agency, two public land sites, and 700 volunteers has grown into a nationwide event that continues to expand and inspire participation.
The Prescott National Forest will be hosting an NPLD West Spruce #264 Trail Construction event on Saturday, September 23, 2023.
