  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;

  color: #fff;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

h1 {
  font-family: Changa One, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

Apologies if I'm incorrect, as I'm new at this. I think you have to put your media screen at the bottom of the rest of the code. Since

h1 {font-family: Changa One, sans-serif;
font-size: 1.75em;
font-weight: normal;}

is coming below the media query in the cascade, it's getting overwritten by the "default" h1 settings.
