Who we are

The Natural History Society is a province-wide organization with a primary interest in promoting the enjoyment and protection of all wildlife and natural history resources in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador and surrounding waters. At the moment, the Society has chapters centered at Comer Brook and St. John's and we are affiliated with the Nature Canada (formerly the Canadian Nature Federation).

The Society has an Indoor Program of informed and interesting guest speakers as well as an Outdoor and Workshop Program. Regular Society meetings co-incide with our indoor program presentations, and are presently held at the Memorial University Botanical Garden (Mt. Scio Rd, see map) on the THIRD THURSDAY of each month during the months of September to June, beginning, at 8:00 PM. There are no indoor meetings during the summer months. The outdoor & workshop program runs year round.

The Society welcomes the participation of all citizens and visitors to the province of any age, and encourages all to participate in our programs where they feel comfortable (families, children, young adults, and senior citizens alike). Not all of our outdoor events are suitable for all persons, however we try to offer a balanced program. In addition to the activity programs, the Society publishes its journal "THE OSPREY" on a quarterly basis - members can mail their submissions here

Our Board is listed on the "Contact" page.
