Do you really DIG nature?! Then you'll DIG being a Nebraska Master Naturalist!
Since 2010 more than 100 Certified Nebraska Master Naturalists have become part of an essential volunteer network dedicated to conserving Nebraska’s natural resources and supporting the conservation community. Master Naturalists have impacted 42,000 Nebraskans, supported over 100 natural resource programs, and provided hours of volunteer service equating to $65,000 in conservation value for Nebraska.
Master Naturalist volunteers are leaders in their communities such as teachers, students, parents, retirees, and conservation professionals. Our partnership of 34 natural resource agencies and organizations trains and awards adults volunteering in natural resource conservation, environmental education, habitat management, citizen science, and outdoor recreation in Nebraska. This expert led volunteer training consists of 60 hours of hands-on outdoor experiences in ecology and biology, focused on Nebraska's ecosystems, plants, and animals.
Online tools such as the Nebraska Nature Network at http://nebraskanaturenetwork.org connect volunteers to opportunities and continuing education in order to fulfill their 20 hour annual service requirement.
