The Texas Master Naturalist Hill Country chapter recently welcomed its newest members as 27 people graduated from the 12-week training course last month.
The basic TMN training curriculum was developed through a partnership with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and Texas AgriLife Extension and is designed to help students gain a deeper knowledge of Hill Country ecology, geology, climate and weather, plants, animals, forests, rivers, streams and springs and critical water issues.
Biologists, wildlife experts and TMN volunteers teach the class. Lectures and textbook reading provide the foundation while outdoor field trips provide deeper, hands-on exposure to the diverse Hill Country environment.
