Welcome! Explore the Hill Country Chapter

Attention: Our website is experiencing an issue with the calendars. It is especially noticeable with Advanced Training. The issue is being worked on. Thank You.

OUR MISSION

The Texas Master Naturalist mission is to develop a corps of well-informed volunteers to provide education, outreach, and service dedicated to the beneficial management of natural resources and natural areas within their communities for the State of Texas.

VOLUNTEER SERVICE IS THE REASON FOR OUR EXISTENCE

Chapter members must contribute 40 hours of volunteer service annually to retain certification in the Texas Master Naturalist program. Our members make a difference in more than 115 chapter-approved volunteer projects across our ten-county service area and contribute thousands of hours each year towards the preservation of our Hill Country environment. For approved projects, please click here.
