Louisiana Master Naturalists, Greater New Orleans Chapter
About this Organization
The LMN Certification Program is offered each Fall and Spring. This certification connects participants with a diverse knowledge base in Louisiana natural history by offering academic lectures and in-the-field workshops taught by experts in the disciplines of ecology, biology, geomorphology, and resource management. Participants learn about the nature of Louisiana's varied physiographic regions, its flora and fauna, and connections between our valued environment, culture, and economy.
