AT ARMAND BAYOU NATURE CENTER

It’s the little things our volunteers do that make a difference

Potting one plant, teaching one person, fixing one light

That help preserve the habitat and wildlife that sustain us all

Hands-On Adventures

During the school year, ABNC offers five levels of interactive EcoPrograms: EcoTots, EcoKids, EcoSchoolers, EcoAdventurers and EcoTeens, with a Bilingües EcTots & EcoKids option available. For extra time in nature, kids can extend their day with EcoAfternoons. During school breaks, kids can join us for our unforgettable camps: Summer EcoCamps, Spring, Fall & Winter Break EcoCamps, as well as special Summer EcoTots and Summer EcoTeens. Plus, we offer Scouting Programs for Cub Scouts and Girl Scouts.

Teachers & Schools

Field Trips & Training

ABNC is a vast outdoor classroom where teachers can bring student learning to life! Teachers can choose from a variety of dynamic STEM Field Trips to inspire your students! Teachers can also enhance skills and earn professional development hours by participating individually in ABNC Activities or by booking a special group SBEC session for your educators or department.

EcoInformation Programs
