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

Kids Programs

During the school year ABNC offers five levels of EcoPrograms: EcoTots, EcoTots & EcoKids Bilingües, EcoSchoolers, EcoAdventurers and EcoTeens. For extra time in nature kids can enjoy EcoAfternoons (an extension of EcoProgram classes).  Summer EcoCamps, and Spring, Fall & Winter Break EcoCamps are offered during School Breaks. We also offer Scouting Programs for Cub Scouts and Girl Scouts.

Teachers & Parents

ABNC offers a wide variety of engaging hands on STEM educational activities, demonstrations, and tours as Group Field Trips including our fun Bayou Safari Field Trips.  We also offer SBEC Credit for teachers that participate in our EcoEducation programs.

EcoInformation Programs

Discover the nature center on our electric vehicle on our Guided Bayou Safari Trips (also good for earning SBEC credit). In Hazardous Beasts Safety Training, learn about "hazardous beasties" in your backyard and beyond.  ABNC also offers an outreach program where we bring our hands-on interactive demonstrations to you.
