Registration required at Writing in Nature - Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy

Join Nancy Morgan, Director Emeritus, Georgetown Lombardi Arts and Humanities Program, for this monthly workshop, presented by Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy, to enjoy the combined health benefits of time spent in nature and writing thoughts and feelings. Writing is often considered a solo, reflective practice, but writing in the company of others can be a supportive, community building activity that encourages regular practice. Each session is a stand-alone event – come when you are able. Registration for each session is open through the morning of the workshop. For directions, click on the Google Map link at the bottom of this page.

Registration requested - Spring Wildflowers of Northern Virginia - Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy

As winter eases into spring, one of the first signs is the blooming of forest wildflowers. Some make dramatic carpets, some are tucked away in inconspicuous nooks; some are beautiful, and some are peculiar looking; many have interesting stories. Join Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy’s Bill Cour for this presentation to inspire you to get out and see them for yourself. Bill leads our weekly spring habitat restoration event, Save the Bluebells: Garlic Mustard Pull at Ball’s Bluff Park. This presentation takes place at Rust Library and is co-sponsored by the Loudoun County Public Library and Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy.
