The Minnesota Naturalists’ Association (MNA) exists to advance
natural and cultural resource interpretation for the purpose
of fostering wise stewardship of all resources.
The 2025 MNA Conference will be held November 14-16, 2025 at Eagle Bluff Environmental Learning Center. Conference Theme: Gather Around the Fire There is something magical about the glow of a campfire that draws people closer to its light and warmth. Fires are a place of community, facilitating connection with longtime friends and new acquaintances. Throughout human history, stories, traditions, and wisdom have been passed on by firelight. People from different generations give and receive and create memories together. Campfires enrich everything from lively celebration to quiet reflection and introspection under the stars. They offer us a safe place to share, welcome others, learn, reflect, and envision the future we hope for. We will be gathering at Eagle Bluff Environmental Learning Center November 14-16 2025 to share ideas, experiences, and knowledge, build community, and invite others to join us in appreciating and stewarding the natural world. We hope you can join us this year! Interested in presenting at the conference? Presenter Application Form Presentation applications are due by 5 p.m. on Friday, October 3, 2025.
