Experience your deen outdoors!
I get to combine my master’s degree in Islamic Studies with my Maryland master naturalist certification to get Muslims outdoors engaging with the ayah of Allah in the natural world and connect with the ayah of Allah in the Quran.
Help me get my 40 volunteer service hours! If you’re interested in bringing one of my free small group workshops to a masjid or green space near you in the DMV, DM me or email kori@greenramadan.com
What is a master naturalist?
A master naturalist is a certified volunteer who has completed classroom instruction and hands-on experience outdoors, and then commits to put that knowledge to use in their region through volunteer service every year, along with additional advanced training. There are master naturalist programs all over the US.
In Maryland, we have to do 52 hours of classroom instruction, 8 hours of hands-on experience outdoors, followed by 40 hours of volunteer service every year and a minimum of 8 hours of advanced training.
Over 2021 & 2022, I did the master naturalist program with the Anacostia Watershed Society which focused on the plants and animals of the Anacostia River Watershed, how human activity has impacted the Anacostia River over time, and the art of teaching others about the natural environment.
