Every day is Earth Day at Dane County Parks, but "Earth Day" is April 22 of every year.

These are the kinds of projects volunteers can do for Earth Day:

• Park Cleanup
• Field Work (cutting brush to restore habitat)
• Brush Piling
• Woodchipping Trails
• Scattering Chaff

Tree planting is possible as an Earth Day project; however, this project must be arranged well in advance, as site preparation is done the preceding autumn. We do our tree planting primarily in April and in October and have a limited number of trees available.

If you or your group would like to do an Earth Day project, contact Rhea at the Parks Department (224-3601).
