The Master Naturalist program is a 12 session course designed to educate
people about the environment of the low country, and of South Carolina.
You will learn how to "read" the landscape. The training is specifically
designed to create a group of people that are well informed about the
local environment. The course includes several excursions to locations
around the low country as well as sessions which will be held on Spring
Island. The fee of $600 for the course covers the cost of several
excellent guide books which we hand out, as well as other materials.
Classes are from 9-3 on Mondays in the fall and the spring, and we will
also be holding a 3-day seminar format program in the spring as well.
Upon completion of the course and 30 hours of volunteer service, you
will receive the designation as a Master Naturalist. There is also the
opportunity upon completion of the program to participate in the
LowCountry Master Naturalist Association. The Association provides
continuing education opportunities, volunteer projects, and social
activities to local Master Naturalists.
