How to Become a Texas Master Naturalist Volunteer
The Hill Country Chapter is one of 48 Chapters within the State of Texas. Our Chapter covers Bandera, Gillespie, Kerr, San Saba, Edward, Kendall, Kimble, Mason, Menard, and Real counties. If you are outside of these Counties you can find your Chapter here.
To become a certified Texas Master Naturalist volunteer with the Hill Country Chapter you must attend a 12-week initial training course and then complete 40 volunteer hours and 8 advanced training hours within 1 year of completing the initial training course.
Our next training class will be in the Spring of 2027.
