Land Trust Days is a statewide, 2 month celebration of the many special places protected by land trusts. Land trusts across the state host activities to share the special places they are protecting for everyone, young and old to enjoy. These events include guided walks, community festivals, full moon walks, farm tours and a whole lot more.
Please note: some events may require registration outside of MeetUp. Please read event descriptions carefully.
Check out our website for Land Trust sponsored activities. Rhode Island Land Trust Days is a project of the Rhode Island Land Trust Council.
Please note that events are posted to this group on behalf of land trusts across Rhode Island. The members of this group generally do not 'meet up' officially, but rather attend the events as participants. If you'd like to attend with other members, feel free to coordinate in the discussion sections of events.

Talking about climate change can feel overwhelming—you’re not alone in feeling this way. While nearly 70% of Americans are concerned about climate change, only 35% regularly discuss it with friends and family, even when they share similar views. Yet, these conversations are essential for driving change and building resilient communities. But how do we start them? That’s where you come in!
Join Joie Grandbois, Historic New England’s Director of Sustainability at Casey Farm, for an interactive workshop designed to help you navigate meaningful conversations about climate change. Through guided activities, tools, and shared experiences, this workshop fosters connection and empowers personal action.
