New Brunswick Federation of Naturalists Inc.
The New Brunswick Federation of Naturalists Inc. (French: Fédération des Naturalistes du Nouveau-Brunswick Inc.), operating as Nature NB, is a Canadian nonprofit charitable organization established in 1972. Registered under Business Number 890107972RR0001, it focuses on the conservation, education, and protection of New Brunswick’s natural ecosystems through collaborative initiatives, community engagement, and youth programs[2][4].
History
Founded in late 1972 as the New Brunswick Federation of Naturalists, the organization originally united a network of naturalist clubs across the province. By 2022, it comprised over a dozen member clubs and hundreds of individual members, reflecting its growth as a leading voice for biodiversity conservation in the province[2][4].
Mission and Activities
Nature NB’s mission centers on celebrating and safeguarding New Brunswick’s natural heritage through education, advocacy, and partnerships. Key initiatives include:
- Education programs: Developing materials and workshops for schools and communities to promote ecological literacy.
- Conservation projects: Collaborating with government agencies, Indigenous groups, and other nonprofits to protect habitats and species.
- Public engagement: Organizing events such as birding rallies, nature walks, and citizen science campaigns[2].
Organizational Structure
The federation operates as a membership-based organization, governed by a board of directors representing its regional clubs. It emphasizes grassroots involvement, with volunteers contributing to field research, habitat restoration, and policy advocacy[2].
Legacy
As one of New Brunswick’s oldest environmental charities, Nature NB has played a pivotal role in shaping provincial conservation policies and fostering public awareness of ecological issues. Its rebranding to Nature NB in the 21st century reflects a modernized approach to environmental stewardship while retaining its founding principles[4].

#WildlifeWednesday Blue Vervain is more than just a beautiful native wildflower, it's a key player in local ecosystems! In this new guest blog by Mount Allison student Keeghan Stephens, you’ll learn how Blue Vervain helps pollinators like bees, feeds birds like Cardinals and Juncos, and even plays a surprising role in slowing climate change by reducing methane emissions in wetlands. This tall, purple-flowered plant blooms from July to September and thrives in damp soils. This season is also the time to gather seeds from its many seed-heads. It’s a great pick for pollinator gardens and wetland restoration efforts alike! 🔗 https://www.naturenb.ca/2025/10/16/blue-vervain-a-wild-wildflower/ Thanks to Dr. Emily Austen and her class from the Applied Native Plants and Pollinator Conservation course at Mount Allison University for this great collaboration! 🌼 --- #MercrediFaune La verveine bleue est bien plus qu’une jolie fleur indigene, elle joue un rôle essentiel dans les écosystèmes locaux! Dans ce nouveau blogue invité rédigé par Keeghan Stephens, étudiant à l’Université Mount Allison, vous découvrirez comment la verveine bleue soutient les pollinisateurs comme les abeilles, nourrit des oiseaux tels que les cardinaux et les juncos, et joue même un rôle surprenant dans la lutte contre les changements climatiques en réduisant les émissions de méthane dans les zones humides. Cette plante haute aux fleurs violettes fleurit de juillet à septembre et prospère dans les sols humides. Cette saison est aussi le moment idéal pour récolter les graines sur ses nombreux épis. Elle est un excellent choix pour les jardins favorables aux pollinisateurs et les efforts de restauration des milieux humides. 🔗 https://www.naturenb.ca/2025/10/16/la-verveine-bleue-une-incroyable-fleur-indigene/?lang=fr Merci à la Dre Emily Austen et à sa classe du cours Applied Native Plants and Pollinator Conservation de l’Université Mount Allison pour cette belle collaboration! 🌼 (fb)
