Each year on Martin Luther King, Jr., Day, people across the country come together for a day of service. #MLKDay2015 This year, Big Thicket National Preserve hosted 86 volunteers who worked to restore a vanishing ecosystem by planting approximately 10,000 longleaf pine seedlings. This is the 5th year in a row that the preserve has sponsored a longleaf pine planting event on this day. Special thanks go to the #BigThicketAssociation, the National Parks Conservation Association #NationalParks, the #StudentConservationAssociation, many local garden club members, and all the individual citizen participants for their commitment to the preservation and restoration of the Big Thicket ecology. Look for information on future volunteer opportunities and other upcoming park events here on Facebook or visit our website at nps.gov/bith.
