Erin Cubbon, Naturalist, Allamakee Co Conservation

Welcome to "Rhymes With Lansing" - a mini-series of podcast shows featuring just a few of the amazing folks that call Lansing, Iowa home. Recorded in the Spring of 2024, these shows represent a snapshot in time of life in one of Iowa's great, rural, Mississippi River towns. Find the intro show to this series here.

Driftless Area Education & Visitor Center

Erin Cubbon is a naturalist for Allamakee County Conservation, based out of the amazing Driftless Area Education & Visitor Center, on the south end of Lansing. Join us to hear her tails of critters, rivers, and culture from the Upper Mississippi River Valley (and beyond!).

Better yet, catch Erin in action at the Driftless Visitors Center - or hear the many tales -and tails- from working with students young (and young at heart) from across the region via educational opportunities.

Check it all out and listen to the entire conversation - then go visit Lansing, Iowa - one of Iowa's best kept River Town secrets! (Did we mention the Driftless Visitors Center is FREE!?)

Rhymes With Lansing is being made possible by the generous support of the Allamakee Clayton Electric Cooperative and Dairyland Power, with additional support from Allamakee County Economic Development and Tourism.
