Who We Are

At Explore More Outdoors, a Pennsylvania-based nonprofit organization, our mission is to inspire and empower individuals to embrace the life-changing power of nature for their physical and mental health. We strive to break down barriers to outdoor access and create inclusive communities that engage with and appreciate the natural world.

Through education, resources, and supportive programs, we aim to create a lifelong connection to the outdoors while promoting conservation and environmental stewardship, enhancing health, happiness, and appreciation for the environment for all.

We understand that in a more online world, it’s important now more than ever to inform the public about why spending time outside is so beneficial to one’s physical and mental well-being. More time spent outdoors has been directly linked to reducing symptoms of depression, reducing muscle tension, lowering heart rate, and much, much more.

With the use of educational programs, promotion of outdoor activities in central Pennsylvania, and presenting opportunities for budding outdoor enthusiasts, Explore More Outdoors aims to not only inspire more outdoor activity, but also to make outdoor activity more accessible for everyone.
