A Naturalist is someone who studies the natural world through direct observation, spending time in fields, forests, and waterways to understand how plants, animals, and ecosystems work. Harriet Tubman became a skilled naturalist through her years, learning how to use stars, plants, animals, and the natural landscape to guide freedom seekers and care for her community. Join park rangers to step into the world of Harriet Tubman as a master naturalist, participate in hands-on activities, and learn helpful skills that you can use on your own today.
