Camping

Use Locally-Sourced Firewood, that is firewood from within a 50-mile radius of your campground. It is illegal to transport untreated firewood more than 50 miles from its source within New York since it could spread diseases and invasive species that can quickly kill trees.

Don't Throw Packaging and Wrappers into the Campfire. Dispose of all trash in trash bags and recycle packaging to avoid polluting the air. This will also protect you and your loved ones from breathing in toxic smoke.

Rainy Day Activity for Children. Print these sustainable living coloring pages from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (https://www.dec.ny.gov/).
