    Description

    National Public Lands Day - Maclay Gardens Workday

    Celebrate this nationwide event with us by volunteering in the historic gardens! National Public Lands Day began in 1994 and remains the nation's largest single-day volunteer effort. All are welcome to join us for a morning of cleaning up the garden beds - you don't need a green thumb to pull weeds!

    Youth under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian for the duration of the volunteer event. Scout troops, corporate volunteers, and other groups are welcome! Volunteers not currently registered with Florida State Parks may sign a Short-Term Volunteer Agreement for the duration of the event. Please arrive to the park to sign paperwork by 8:30 AM if you are not a registered Florida State Parks volunteer.

    Please arrive wearing closed-toe shoes and comfortable clothing that can get dirty. We also recommend gloves, a water bottle, insect repellant, and sun protection. All tools will be provided by the park.
