PA FORESTRY ASSOCIATION 140th ANNUAL SYMPOSIUM

Small Actions. Lasting Forests. Join the Pennsylvania Forestry Association as we celebrate 140 years of stewardship in Pennsylvania at our 140th Annual Symposium & Annual Business Meeting on Saturday, November 7, 2026, in State College. This milestone gathering brings together woodland owners, forestry professionals, conservationists, educators, industry partners, and friends of Penn’s Woods for a day focused on the past, present, and future of Pennsylvania’s forests. The 2026 symposium features keynote speaker Ethan Tapper — forester, author, and conservation advocate — along with networking opportunities, forestry and community exhibitors, the PFA Annual Business Meeting, lunch and refreshments, and the presentation of PFA’s annual awards. As the Pennsylvania Forestry Association marks its 140th anniversary, we invite everyone who cares about Pennsylvania’s forests to come together, exchange ideas, celebrate accomplishments, and consider the small actions we can take today to create lasting forests for generations to come.
