Public Lands Day Volunteer Project
Join staff at Homestead National Historical Park’s Education Center on Saturday, September 26, to celebrate National Public Lands Day. The park will honor America's public lands by exploring local biodiversity through three unique guided nature walks:
- 8:00 a.m. – Bird Walk
- 10:00 a.m. – Plant Walk
- 12:30 p.m. – Insect Walk
Each walk lasts approximately one hour. Park staff will demonstrate how to use community science apps like eBird and iNaturalist to document observations. The data collected by volunteers helps determine what species live in Homestead’s prairies and woodlands. Identifying what lives on the land—and tracking how it changes over time—is the crucial first step to effective land management.
Documenting biodiversity is a powerful way to celebrate National Public Lands Day.
