EE VIRTUALLY AT ALNC

Explore the natural world with us…virtually!

Even though much of life seems to have stopped or slowed down, nature continues on. Engage with us and explore the natural world through these virtual field trips and discover what is happening on the grounds at ALNC.

Please note: The children featured in these videos are children of the Environmental Educators. If you plan to visit Aldo Leopold Nature Center, or any public space, and partake in activities such as these, please be sure to follow all public health guidelines and practice safe social distancing. Thank you.
