Miami-Dade County Parks Earth Day Celebration
This event has passed.
Join Miami-Dade County Parks on Saturday, April 20 for an Earth Day Celebration at Larry & Penny Thompson Park. Spend the day volunteering alongside park staff to restore the Pine Rockland habitat and clean up litter along park trails and shorelines.
Volunteer tasks include planting native species in designated Pine Rockland restoration areas, removing invasive plants from trails and assisting with litter removal and debris cleanup. In addition to volunteer activities, participants can enjoy a variety of family-friendly activities throughout the park. Highlights include tree giveaways through Million Trees Miami, an EcoVillage featuring educational booths and more.
Don't forget to bring a refillable water bottle for hydration and wear closed-toe shoes along with appropriate clothing for outdoor work. Miami-Dade Parks will provide the necessary tools for completing volunteer tasks.
