Volunteers will help plant trees on uneven terrain to enhance the floodplain forest and provide natural habitat for wildlife. Located in the Mississippi National River and Recreation Area and also has an extensive trail system which is connected to Fort Snelling State Park and other parks, Crosby Farm Regional Park is the largest natural park in St. Paul with 736 acres of floodplain forests, wooded slopes in oak forest/savanna, and natural wetlands.
