September 29 is National Public Lands Day and will feature numerous volunteer opportunities across the United States. Volunteers will work with agencies such as the Bureau of Land Management, parks divisions, and vital work such as erosion control. For example, gabions and erosion control matting will be installed at Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge (see link below for more).
