Support your local conservation lands during our first Hands on the Land workday of 2026! During this workday we'll be at the historic Moon-Randolph Homestead, helping to replace an old fence. The Homestead, tucked away in Missoula scenic North Hills, is protected with a Five Valleys conservation easement.

Lunch and drinks will be provided, and carpooling is available with prior arrangement. Volunteers should wear work clothes suitable for the weather, bring a hat, gloves, and a water bottle, and wear sturdy, close-toed shoes.
