Save the Date – National Public Lands Day Webinar

Join us for a special National Public Lands Day Webinar on Thursday, Sept 25 at 6 PM ET.

Learn how YOU can volunteer, explore, and give back to the Florida Trail. Two passionate FTA volunteers will share their personal experiences and tips for making an impact.

Then, celebrate NPLD by hiking a section of the trail near you! Use our interactive map to plan your route and don’t forget to share your photos – tag @FloridaTrail to be featured on our social media pages!
