Missouri Master Naturalist - Boone's Lick Chapter (Boone Co)

Description

The Missouri Master Naturalist (MMN) program mixes science with service, engaging Missourians in stewardship of the state’s natural resources through science-based education and volunteer community service. The program is provided through a partnership between the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) and the University of Missouri Extension.

Master Naturalists receive specialized training regarding nature in the region where chapters are based. Members help MDC and conservation partners through citizen science, educational programs, and stewardship projects.
