Trees For Tomorrow (TFT), a non-profit environmental education center in Eagle River, will be hosting a Wisconsin Master Naturalist training. Join TFT staff and regional experts in a week-long exploration of the waters, forests, wildlife, and geology that make the Northwoods so special. Our field experiences allow opportunities to explore county, state, or national forest lands as well as the beautiful lakes, rivers, and wetlands of the Northwoods. Participants will also learn more about citizen science opportunities, current research in various fields, and how they can make a difference in their communities through volunteer service. Please note that this training visits several field locations that will require a moderate amount of hiking on and off trail, sometimes on uneven terrain.
