The Nature Nut series is a program that is hosted once a month on a different topic. Programs are hosted at an O’Brien County Conservation park or the Prairie Heritage Center. Or participants can do them at your own pace and download materials from www.prairieheritagecenter.org. Programs will consist of a presentation on the topic and a hands-on activity. In-person programs will be 45-60 minutes in length. Participants can do a mix of in-person or virtual programs to participate. Participants who choose to join virtually will find all materials posted at www.prairieheritagecenter.org after the in-person presentation.
When you have completed the topic for the month get a stamp in your passport and you are on your way to becoming an official Nature Nut. Do one or do them all!
