As the sun begins to set earlier and mornings start to get cooler, some may be desperate to hold onto the last days of summer. However, shorter days and colder temperatures can bring all new joys to our lives in the PA Wilds! It is hard to beat the feeling of curling up in a hoodie with a cup of hot coffee and a good book. The beauty of the changing leaves and deliciousness of fall flavors only last a couple months.

The PA Wilds Makers Market is back for 2024 and has a new date! Kick off your holiday shopping and support PA Wilds small businesses on October 19, 2024 on ShopThePAWilds.com.

The kids are out of school, the leaves are green, the vacations are planned… and the temperature is way too hot! We have a few tips for staying cool in the summer heat in the PA Wilds.

Here in the PA Wilds, we’re fortunate to be able to experience the full beauty of each season: summers full of sunshine, the fall leaves and crisp autumn air, magical snow-covered winter landscapes and the blossoming of new life in spring. Appreciate each season for what it brings, and make new memories in nature with your family and friends. These products, which are all designed and made in the PA Wilds, will help you celebrate the arrival of fall.
