If you love learning about the natural world and are passionate about the natural world, this training is for you.

Bernheim has an amazing core of Volunteer Naturalists and Naturalist Assistants who lead or support many of our public programs, discovery experiences, summer camps, adult group tours, school field trips, and so much more. The Bernheim Volunteer Naturalist training program seeks to develop ecological learners and leaders that promote stewardship and inspire a more compelling relationship with our natural and cultural landscapes.

Volunteer Naturalists assist in furthering Bernheim’s mission of connecting people with nature, and advancing our Vision Statement: Bernheim will be a nationally treasured leader in ecological stewardship that inspire the exploration of our deep connection with nature.
