Outdoor Experiences
Exploring nature and learning outdoor skills is vital to each Girl Scout's mental and spiritual development. Outdoor Patch Programs help introduce girls to exciting outdoors adventure!
Protect the planet from the effects of climate change.
All over the world, deforestation and climate change are damaging the planet. Trees help cool communities, reducing the heat island effect created by buildings, machines, and pavement. They also provide habitat for wildlife, create shade on hot summer days, clean water, and remove asthma-causing air pollution.
Join Girl Scouts to make the world a better place as we plant, protect, and honor trees with the Girl Scout Tree Promise. Learn how to solve community problems and use team-building skills to sow seeds of change with family and friends today!

You don’t need access to a national park or the
woods to enjoy the outdoors! So put yourself out there with us and
participate in our Girl Scouts Love the Outdoors Challenge.
Spending at least 120 minutes a week in nature is associated
with improved mood, focus, and confidence—whether you spend that time
becoming a rockstar at rock climbing, making a splash in the puddles
around your neighborhood, or watching wandering wildlife at a
park.
