Orange Field Naturalist & Conservation Society Inc. has been established since October 1974.

The group has one meeting per month on the 2nd Thursday of the month.  After the meeting, there is usually a guest speaker, slide show or or other activity.  The Sunday following the meeting, the group has a field trip.  This might be a bush-walk, a working bee, a flora or fauna survey or other activity of interest to budding naturalists.  

For details of the next talk and excursion, follow the link to the Coming Events page.

The group welcomes people of all ages and experience.  The only criterion is an interest in the natural world. 

The aims of the society are as follows:

1) To hold public meetings to educate members and supporters about nature conservation.

2) To produce newsletters aimed at informing members and the public of the activities of the Association.

3) To organise field trips and working-bees aimed at studying and conserving Australia’s natural environment.

4) To conserve and replace native trees and other flora.

5) To monitor human impact on the natural environment and to advise public and private institutions of the environmental impact of their activities.

6) To enter joint activities with other groups sharing similar objects.
