National Public Lands Day
Join us as we recognize over 100 years of public use recreation in Pisgah National Forest.
What The Day Involves:
We are celebrating our national forests and conservation on this special day! Participants have options for guided walks, gardening projects which highlight biodiversity, and service projects.
What Is National Public Lands Day?:
In 2017 NPLD honors it’s 24th year connecting citizens with their public lands. The National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF) supports this annual event. NEEF’s focus is educating the public on how the environment impacts their lives. Hundreds of public use sites participate in NPLD each year.
Get Your Group Or Organization Involved:
Examples of service projects your boy scouts troop, youth group, homeschool group, etc. may participate in include:
- Invasive species removal at the Cradle of Forestry
- Bird house building and installation
- Work in the seedling nursery
- Use of the citizen science tool iNaturalist to catalog species at the Cradle of Forestry
If you are a group leader with an interest in service, find out how your group can “lend a hand, care for the land” at the Cradle of Forestry on NPLD by calling (828) 877-3130.
General Event Information: Event times are 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. unless otherwise noted. Admission is FREE on this special day.

Afternoon Tea With Llamas
$5.00 for ages 16 and up, free for youth. America the Beautiful and Golden Age passports are honored.
Meet these llamas, fascinating pack animals, each with their own “personality.” Guided walks follow a 2-mile paved trail along the Forest Festival and Forest Discovery Trail. Presented by Challenge Adventures.
Walks begin at 11:00 a.m. & 2:00 p.m.
Llamas And Challenge Adventures:
Begun in 1989, Challenge Adventures creates adventures for youth and organizations focusing on the environment, youth therapy and empowerment.
Why llamas? “Llamas are gentle animals with a strong social structure. Each llama has a unique role in the herd and the herd itself provides a vivid living metaphor that CA therapists use to teach lessons about cooperation and teamwork. The llama also provides a projective device… participants frequently project their own identity, wishes and motivations onto their llama.” On their website you can read the bios of each llama.
More Info:
During this walk learn about special traits llamas have for the trail. You have the chance to take turns leading a llama. Your lunch & snacks are carried for you while ice tea is provided. Please pack your lunch.
Event entrance is $5.00 for ages 16 and up, free for youth. Includes entrance to the site’s trails, exhibits, gift shop, and any special tours offered that day.
