Fête de la Nature: Bioblitz

Celebrate the natural beauty of Acadiana at the Atelier de la Nature reserve in Arnaudville for its annual Fête de la Nature. Throughout the day, scientists will head an official BioBlitz—encouraging guests to search the property for as many species of birds, reptiles, insects, plants, fungus, and more that they can find. The Culinary Institute of Baton Rouge will be onsite; and live music will be provided by Wayne Singleton and Same Ol' 2 Step. Food and music from noon–2 pm; Bioblitz events lasting all day long, from 6 am–11:30 pm. Admission is free, but proceeds from the lunch and beverages will benefit youth educational programs at Atelier de la Nature. Register at eventbrite.com.
