Ontario Nature

ON Nature is Ontario Nature’s award-winning quarterly magazine, bringing readers closer to the province’s wild species and natural spaces. It offers engaging, authoritative environmental journalism designed to inform and inspire, with contributions from award-winning writers and photographers and leading conservation experts. Its coverage explores topics including wildlife, habitats, conservation, environmental education, and the challenges affecting Ontario’s ecosystems. The Fall 2026 issue, for example, examines the spread of golden oyster mushrooms, life around an underwater mountain in Lake Superior, and barriers to outdoor learning in schools.

Readers can explore current, upcoming, and back issues, as well as selected articles from the magazine’s archive. ON Nature also provides nature guides on subjects such as bats, butterflies and moths, native plants, reptiles and amphibians, backyard habitats, and species at risk. Additional online content includes Nature Notes, Nature of the North, a northern forest foraging guide, and a blog. The publication is available through print and digital subscriptions, and the site offers information for contributors, advertisers, and readers.
