Description

National Biodiversity Parks (NBP) searches for, and acquires, ecologically valuable properties that can support sustainable, community based business models. We enter negotiations and raise funds to purchase these lands via partnerships and management agreements. NBP applies for and obtains grants to restore or improve properties for wildlife conservation and long term, societal return.

We perform various studies of birds, reptiles, insects and plants on various lands. Our scientists, naturalists and members lead field trips to biodiverse habitats. NBP offers varied and dynamic conservation investment/financial services and biological offerings.

We participate in various conservation fundraisers such as bioblitzes, big days and the World Series of Birding. Our members write articles about various subjects.

Our education and science department lead various field trips concentrating on ecology and incentive programs, designed by teachers and volunteers. The programs are intended to improve students science skills and confidence through discovery, field birding and ecology.

We assist communities in identifying valuable open space assets.
