Who we are and what we do

The LNU is the only amateur Natural History Society covering the whole of Lincolnshire. Members study, record, hold meetings, supply information, publish books, exhibit, discuss and learn.

Founded in 1893, the Lincolnshire Naturalists’ Union has over one hundred years of experience and information on Lincolnshire’s wildlife and geology.

In that time we have seen the county change almost beyond recognition and have a wealth of observations on just how those changes have affected our wildlife – made on over 800 field meetings all over the county.

JOIN NOW!

Field meetings

Every month from April to October the LNU meet somewhere in the county to study and record the wildlife of a particular site or area.

Indoor meetings

Most common are lectures and identification workshops for both beginners and those who want to develop their expertise.
