Become A Master Naturalist
Enroll for our next Cohort and learn from leading experts about our desert ecosystem to use what you’ve learned to protect, care for and teach others. You will learn how to interpret what you’ve learned in order to develop relationships with local partners and lead projects that will benefit the environment and the community at large.
Become A Partner
Our partners include a variety of groups, businesses, organizations, and government agencies that support, protect and maintain our desert ecosystem. By partnering with MCPMN you will have access to our community leaders who can help you develop, promote and facilitate your give-back projects and campaigns.
Our Master Naturalists are trained to serve in three capacities: stewardship, community science, and education and have a wealth of knowledge and skills.
Give Back
There are lots of ways that you can support the MCPMN without having to become one. Some of our volunteer projects are open to the public and we encourage you join us. If you aren’t quite ready to take the course to become a Certified Master Naturalist we also have a “Friend Of” option. We are always on the search for any relevant subject-matter experts who are willing to share their wisdom with our cohorts whether its during our core 60 hr course or for one of the monthly chapter meetings. And of course, monetary donations are also appreciated.
