It’s Earth Day — but for Kansas wildlife, every day counts.

From prairie grasslands to winding rivers, our state’s natural spaces don’t take a day off. They rely on thoughtful stewardship year-round.

You don’t have to plant a thousand trees to make a difference. Start small:
• Pick up litter on your next hike
• Respect wildlife and nesting areas
• Follow burn bans and fire safety
• Support conservation through licenses and permits
• Introduce someone new to the outdoors

Healthy land. Clean water. Thriving wildlife. That’s the goal.

Ready to celebrate Earth Day the Kansas way? Get outside and explore your nearest state park:

Tell us how you’re spending Earth Day.
