We were founded in 1920 for the popular and scientific study of nature. Today, we continue to study nature and the protection and conservation of our natural environment is a high priority. The MNS believes that the chance to experience an undamaged environment in peace and tranquility is a joy and a privilege. We also believe in the importance of sound stewardship and the wise use of our natural resources. Throughout the year, the MNS runs an average of at least one outdoor event per week.
Most events are free.
Workshops for special interest groups, trips to the Mantario Wilderness Education Centre and Family Programs are part of the overall choice of activities. Each month's events are published in advance in the Bulletin which is circulated to all members. Become a member, Serve on one of our committees, Lend a helping hand in a variety of activities.
