“Eat Your Yard!" a Wild Edibles Foraging Walk and Cooking Demo

Atelier de la Nature is a twenty-five-acre nature reserve and eco-educational campus located in the heart of Louisiana’s Cajun country, that aims to inspire people to steward the nature in their own backyards and learn how, collectively, we can protect these natural gifts for future generations. Started in 2017 by biologist and artist Brandon Ballengée, and sustainable food educator Aurore Ballengée, Atelier de la Nature’s programs use active learning methods that combine art with science and nature-based education as a means to empower people to become stewards of their local environment. Louisiana ranks among the worst states in the nation for science education and we want to help fix this! Likewise, art is not taught nor available to most students in our or other surrounding Parishes and we want to help children learn to express themselves through the arts.
