EcoAction Days at Broward County Parks

Volunteers are important to parks, especially when it comes to helping our natural areas clear out the garbage and invasive plants that continually plague our environment.  From October through May, volunteers (ages 13 and up) seek out nature at the natural areas or nature centers and get busy between 9 a.m. and noon.

Volunteers bring their own gloves, a hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, and drinking water to tackle the weeds and trash accumulating in different areas of the county
