paint_me_your_songLove!!!!I have been bingeing this podcast while taking my Minnesota Master Naturalist classes, and I love how relevant every topic has been, and I’m learning so much more! I think I’m on the second to last episode available at this time, and I’m so sad it’s almost over.

MinnTEXASThe Perfect Company for your WanderingsThis podcast offers so much insight for all those in the Minnesota area. Not only does it provide the curious naturalist with new information to fuel their wonderings, but it also spikes the interest for history buffs, Minnesotants, and your natural inquisitor. Covering topics from the environment to human development, history, current projects, and more... there is nothing like the Wandering Naturalist to remind us just how connected this whole world is.

FluffyLagniappeHighly recommend for all in MinnesotaFun podcast to listen to! I love that they interview several different people to get a lot of perspective on a topic and that they try to make it very relevant for people in MN. I like how they bring up citizen science ideas that people can participate in.

patriciakayWandering NaturalistWhat an exciting new Podcast! Interesting and educational. Looking forward to many more episodes.

NorthstarhikerSo many perspectives.This podcast is great! It covers so any aspects of snow. I never realized what an impact a lack of snow had on plants and animals. How people dealt with snow in the 1800s was fascinating. I would not like to live in a house where my ink froze. Can’t wait for future episode. Highly recommend!
