Nashville, Tenn. – The Department of Environment and Conservation invites the public to take part in volunteer activities planned across Tennessee in celebration of National Public Lands Day on Sept. 27.
National Public Lands Day is the nation's largest one-day, volunteer stewardship event. Organizers seek to honor the legacy of the Civilian Conservation Corps in protecting America's public lands. Last year, more than 110,000 people volunteered at 1,300 natural sites across the country, building trails, planting trees and removing litter to improve America’s shared lands for all who visit them.
