It’s My Park Day

Austin Parks Foundation’s spring edition of It’s My Park Day (IMPD), will be held on Saturday, March 4th. Registration to sign up for the organization’s largest city-wide volunteer event is now open and includes over 80 different projects to help improve parks, trails, and greenbelts across the city. Volunteer projects will include city-approved tree mulching, root collar clearing, habitat restoration, and trail maintenance, as well as park and creek brush cleanups following the winter storm.
