CULTIVATING COMMUNITY with
and THROUGH THE NATURAL WORLD
The Louisiana Wild Society is a women-led not-for-profit organization that believes in the importance of protecting and regenerating our planet through community engagement. We encourage landscape stewardship and environmental education.
Along with teaching, we also believe deeply in community, friendship, and the importance of play, so our plant giveaways and garden installations come to life in Louisiana fais do-do fashion, and are always family-friendly.
We hope you’ll join our network of friends in the pursuit of projects that re-wild our earth.
We’re on a mission to provide education, skills, and resources for all living beings to thrive. We pursue beautification projects and nourish rich habitats for future generations.
Plant diversity is the foundation of the food chain, so through the diversification of ecologies, we work together to ensure that sustainable ecologies flourish for all.
Restoring our earth is possible.

Do you feel disenchanted with the state of our environment?
Do you feel like change is impossible?
We want you to know that you can absolutely make a difference.
Have you ever considered?
60% of this nation’s land is privately held.
Of this 60%, 40 million acres is lawn.
When individuals like you focus on your own little piece of earth, you can create substantial environmental change for the better.
It’s time to get to know our own backyards (porches, balconies, stoops!). Begin by nurturing the plants you have, and together we can create native habitats that serve as safe havens for Southeast Louisiana’s local ecosystems and wildlife.

Do you have a passion for people, plants, and the planet?
Let’s get growing together. We believe that by working together, the greater Baton Rouge area is becoming a thriving city where people are connected to the earth, each other, and the plants that surround us.
Knowing that you love the earth changes you, activates you to defend and protect and celebrate. But when you feel that the earth loves you in return, that feeling transforms the relationship from a one-way street into a sacred bond.
