Take A Field Trip With The Natural Resources Foundation

MADISON, Wis. – The Natural Resources Foundation of Wisconsin (NRF) has just announced 280 outdoor adventures available during its 2026 Field Trip season.

In celebration of its 40th anniversary, NRF is offering a wide variety of hands-on, expert-led nature experiences for adults and families all over the state. NRF has been protecting Wisconsin's lands, waters and wildlife and connecting all people with nature since 1986, and has been leading field trips since 1993.

Each year, NRF members eagerly await the announcement of the year’s trips and begin planning which ones they’d like to attend. NRF field trips are available to all NRF members and proceeds from trips support conservation.

Trip registration is first-come, first-served, and opens at noon on April 8. People who are interested in NRF field trips are encouraged to renew their NRF memberships well in advance of the busy registration date.
