“Advancing conservation, building community, and connecting Vermonters to the wild heart of place.”

VMN trains close-knit teams of naturalists in local natural history across the earth, life and social sciences:

• Learn to interpret the landscapes of local conservation lands, from geology to botany to land-use history and beyond.
• Partner with local organizations and town officials to design and implement volunteer projects in conservation, stewardship, and education.
• Receive Vermont Master Naturalist certification and serve as a citizen advisory group to local natural resource issues.
