Upcoming events

September 22-24, 2026 — Whitebark Pine Science & Management Conference

This annual event, hosted by the Whitebark Pine Ecosystem Foundation, rotates around the large region that’s host to this iconic timberline tree. This year it‘s in South Lake Tahoe, CA. Besides the customary technical presentations, the get-together will include a scenic hike, roundtable discussions, an evening community event and a field trip to Mount Rose Summit. This is the conference website.

Sunday, October 11, 2026 at 2 pm — Pollinator Garden fall cleanup

Soon it will be time for our annual putting-to-bed of the popular native-plant garden by the Gallagator Trail north of Mason Street (Langohr Community gardens in Bozeman, in the picture at the bottom of the webpage). This doesn’t take a long, and it’s a great opportunity to catch up with like-minded folks and pester our leader with your native-plant-landscaping questions! Contact: Linda Iverson at (406) 932-5840. Bring clippers and/or a rake.

Tuesday, October 20, 2026 at 7 pm – MNPS Presents: Our Summer in the Field

This Zoom will kick off the season of MNPS Presents with a cornucopia of pictures taken during MNPS field trips this year. In early October you’ll receive a link to “register” for the Zoom presentation, which is necessary to keep bad actors out. Once registered, you’ll be invited to join the teleconference on the evening of October 20.
