Celebrate 250, Healthy Lands Week, National Public Lands Day, Volunteer Opportunities
Our Commonwealth’s unique natural, historical, and cultural resources make it a wonderful place to live, work, and play. Our stewardship makes Pennsylvania’s lands healthy lands. Pennsylvania Healthy Lands Week is an annual “rallying cry” for public engagement in the places and landscapes that make Pennsylvania special.
This year Healthy Lands Week heads to Bedford County, Pennsylvania, with a series of volunteer opportunities and activities that showcase what stewardship can look like.
All week long from National Public Lands Day on September 26 through A Walk in Penn’s Woods Day on October 4, 2026, there will be opportunities to learn about conservation and preservation, roll up your sleeves and volunteer, and see how everyone can make a difference.
