Lunch & Learn
This engaging dialogue brings in experts from around the state to discuss and present the latest information on a variety of nature themed subjects.
Visitors to the Lunch & Learn may bring a bag lunch of their own, or may purchase a pre-ordered box lunch (including beverage) from the Nature Center that will be ready for pick-up when they arrive. This series is a great way for local business people and residents to expand their knowledge and allows the Nature Center to focus on one of its key mission objectives: educating adults of all ages about the natural world and our place in it.
