Learn More About Hands-on Habitat
At Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever, habitat improvement is at the core of our mission. Hands-On Habitat is an invitation to our community to take a hands-on approach to enhancing upland habitat in your area.
Thanks to the success of these efforts and the positive impact they've had on upland acres nationwide, we're thrilled to bring back Hands-On Habitat Month in 2025! This year, we're challenging our chapters, volunteers, and supporters to dedicate time throughout May to host or participate in habitat projects. These boots-on-the-ground efforts are not only essential for preserving upland landscapes, but they also provide an opportunity to connect with and engage your local community. Hands-On Habitat workdays are the perfect way to directly contribute to our mission and make a lasting impact.
