Murfreesboro's National Public Lands Day - RESCHEDULED

We need volunteers to help us care for our community's public lands!

On Saturday, November 2, 2024, Stones River National Battlefield, and our community partners will try once again to celebrate National Public Lands Day by bringing the residents of Murfreesboro and Rutherford County together for a morning dedicated to caring for the lands and waterways that are a critical part of life in in our community. Check-in opens at 8:30 AM and we will work from 9-11:30 AM.

We will be working at the McFadden Farm Unit and land that was preserved by American Battlefield Trust that will become our newest city park. The plans are in place, now we need you, the public to join us in removing invasive plants and trash from these landscapes where the Battle of Stones raged nearly 162 years ago. Registration is required at https://forms.office.com/g/uwX873PZbR.  Volunteers under 14 years old may not participate in invasive plant removal.
