North House and Hawk Ridge collaborate for theNorth Woods, Great Lakes MN Master Naturalist Course!
May 27-31, 2026
North House Folk School is excited to partner with Hawk Ridge Bird Observatory to host the North Woods, Great Lakes MN Master Naturalist Course on the spectacular North Shore of Lake Superior. Dig into northern ecology in this five-day immersion course that offers a wide variety of field experiences to explore a variety of area plant and animal communities, amazing geology, and Lake Superior, while also investigating human interactions in these ecosystems. Situated on the Grand Marais Harbor, North House offers an exceptional launching place for learning about the Northwoods and Lake Superior. This session will be offered during the Northern Landscapes Festival, a week when some of Minnesota's finest naturalists converge at North House to take in the emerging spring season through birding, phenology and geology field experiences as well as evening lectures—no doubt we’ll encounter a few of these experts through the course, an added bonus to the lead instructor Margie Menzies, who will be joined by Joe Walewski from Wolf Ridge for the first three days and other guests through the other two days. Join us for a tightly packed whirlwind of adventures and learning! This course qualifies participants to become Master Naturalists and a small group capstone project will be completed by participants during the course.
The course cost is $395 and includes course manuals and supplies.
