VOLUNTEERMIAMI DAY / EARTH DAY | SATURDAY, APRIL 22, 2023 | 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM
This year VolunteerMiami Day falls on Earth Day, and we are spending the day outdoors with Miami-Dade County Parks at Kendall Indian Hammocks Park for a hardwood hammock restoration project. Join us in serving as good stewards of the South Florida habitat and improving our environment for our neighbors to enjoy for years to come. Don’t miss the fun – there will be family-friendly activities, a plant giveaway and food trucks.
