The Young Naturalists Club of Nova Scotia is an immersive natural history club for youth and families that promotes the appreciation and conservation of nature. The Club creates opportunities to develop natural history skills and knowledge through interactions with adult naturalists and hands-on learning experiences. The organization connects members of the adult natural history community with young people interested in nature in order to foster youngsters’ passion for nature. Positive experiences in nature, and a shared excitement about the natural world, lead to the development of a life-long conservation ethic. The Club delivers on its promise through offering monthly meetings and field trips in communities in Nova Scotia. At monthly meetings, members hear from fascinating guest speakers and explore Nova Scotian wildlife and current topics in natural sciences. On monthly field trips, members get out into nature on guided walks, lead by local natural history experts.
