Are you passionate about the natural world and eager to make a difference in your community? Join us at Yankauer Nature Preserve to learn about the Potomac Valley Master Naturalist Program, the official chapter for the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia. Our program unites individuals who share a love for nature and a commitment to environmental stewardship.

During this session, we’ll discuss the application process, fees, and the requirements to become a Master Naturalist. You’ll also learn how the PVMN program provides science-based education and volunteer opportunities to connect people with nature and foster environmental responsibility.
