Volume 21 of the LMNGNO Newsletter is out. The Greater New Orleans chapter is working hard to bring our members a wide range of experiences. From the
weekend-long Annual Gathering at Bogue Chitto State Park to
the book club to Byron Almquist’s micro-hikes in urban green
spaces, we want to give everyone opportunities to be together
and engage with the natural world. And Rendezvous 2025,
the annual state-wide meeting of the Louisiana Master
Naturalists, was held in Baton Rouge this year. The program
had something for everyone. Click the image below to read the newsletter. To view previous ones, click here. 

Remember LMNGNO is participating in GiveNOLA Day. Please help us reach our $5,000 goal. 

If you would like to volunteer as part of the newsletter team, WE NEED YOU! Contact Bill Van der Meer, editor.
