Master Naturalists


Hi all,

Sorry about the late post. Why is it that summer seems to go by at warp speed, while winter crawls at a snail's pace?

We had a great show on Monday, June 19, with Annabel Major and Brandy Lively from the Nebraska Master Naturalist program at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.


Annabel and Brandy told listeners what Master Naturalists are, and how people can become certified. Their first session starts in July, and they hope to have more sessions in the future.


A Master Naturalist is someone who is interested in educating people about natural resources including animals, birds, plants, insects, geology, climate, and many more areas. People are trained in a variety of subjects that will enhance their knowledge so that they may in turn use their knowledge to educate others about our natural world.


To find out more about the program, contact Annabel or Brandy at:

Thanks for listening. My next show is Monday, July 19, at 6 p.m.
