Pheasants Forever & Quail Forever'S
Hands-on Habitat Month
May 2024



 

Want to get your hands dirty while helping with a local habitat project? Here’s your chance! Pheasants Forever & Quail Forever chapters across the country are hosting Hands-On Habitat Workdays throughout the month of May!

Volunteerism has driven our organization since its creation and now is the perfect opportunity to learn about your local chapter, engage your community, have fun, and move the needle for our mission of upland habitat conservation!

Habitat improvement is at the heart of the Pheasants Forever & Quail Forever mission. For the past two years, we have put out a call-to-action in the spring for our Pheasants Forever & Quail Forever community to help improve upland habitat in their local areas through Hands-On Habitat workdays.

Because of the success of those workdays and the positive impact on upland acres across the country, we are excited to bring back Hands-On Habitat Month again in 2024! This year, through a dedicated month of on-the-ground volunteerism and habitat projects, we’re once again challenging our chapters, volunteers, and supporters to find time during the month of May to host or participate in a project devoted to improving our upland landscapes. Hands-On Habitat workdays hit the center of the bull’s eye when it comes to promoting and executing our mission while engaging with your community.
 

This is a call-to-action for all of us to put boots on the ground, get our hands dirty, and prove that we are the sharp end of the conservation shovel.
