Frog Week is Pennsylvania’s premier six-month-long citizen science and conservation initiative, celebrating native frogs and toads while fostering public engagement in herpetology.

 

Now in its seventh year, the program focuses on species including the American toad, wood frog, gray tree frog, northern green frog, and pickerel frog.

 

How Frog Week Works

Frog Week is the result of a unique collaboration between PA Woods and Forests and Woods and Forests Media. PA Woods and Forests provides the field research, ecological monitoring, and conservation leadership that form the backbone of the project. This includes tracking wild populations of frogs and toads, conducting citizen science surveys, and documenting critical ecological discoveries across Pennsylvania.

​

Woods and Forests Media transforms this research into accessible, engaging storytelling. Through professional videography, aerial footage, photography, and digital media, the fieldwork is brought to life for audiences of all ages. Educational videos, interactive stories, and media campaigns share the mission of conservation while inspiring people to appreciate and protect amphibians in their own communities.

​

Together, the two branches combine science and storytelling to create a one-of-a-kind experience during Frog Week. PA Woods and Forests ensures the project stays rooted in conservation and research. At the same time, Woods and Forests Media amplifies the message, reaching thousands of people through social media, streaming platforms, and live events.

​

This partnership ensures that Frog Week is not only a celebration of frogs and toads but also a lasting movement that connects communities with nature and builds momentum for conservation action.
