Frog Week

While Frog Week is primarily a conservation project, Woods and Forests Media serves as a separate entity that collaborates closely with PA Woods and Forests to bring the project to a broader audience. As part of this collaboration, Woods and Forests Media also contributes special episodes featuring their enclosures and ambassador frogs and toads, adding dynamic storytelling, behind-the-scenes perspectives, and engaging narratives that complement the fieldwork.

Through professional videography, photography, interactive media, and storytelling, Woods and Forests Media transforms the field research and citizen science work into engaging educational content. This collaboration allows the public to explore the lives, habitats, and behaviors of Pennsylvania’s amphibians while learning practical conservation strategies.

Together, PA Woods and Forests provides the science and on-the-ground expertise. At the same time, Woods and Forests Media amplifies the message, making Frog Week accessible and inspiring to thousands of viewers online and at live events. This partnership ensures Frog Week is both a hands-on conservation effort and a platform for education, engagement, and community connection.

Frog Week 2025

Frog Week 2025: A Foundational Year for Conservation and Education. Frog Week 2025 marked a groundbreaking chapter in the mission to conserve Pennsylvania’s native frogs and toads. This year, the initiative expanded into a multi-county, multi-platform educational and scientific campaign, solidifying its role as a leading regional amphibian conservation effort.

One of the year’s most impactful achievements was receiving a grant to launch Critter Talks in the Classroom, an outreach program bringing real conservation projects into Pennsylvania schools. Six schools and ten classrooms participated in this pilot year, helping raise 20 wood frogs from tadpoles to froglets. Native carnivorous plants, including pitcher plants and sundews, as well as captive-bred Pennsylvania-native millipedes, were also part of the educational materials.
