Sorry for the inconvenience, but this program has been cancelled.

We are pleased to offer this as an elective of our Southern Appalachian Naturalist Certification Program in 2021.

LICHENS…these mysterious organisms have fascinated people for years. Their life history and diversity is fascinating, and they serve as habitat for other bizarre creatures—the tardigrades, or water bears!

Spend the weekend delving into the enchanting world of lichens as we learn their basic ecology, identification, and natural history during this field-based course. The program lasts from Friday supper to Sunday lunch.

Cost: $390 – includes lodging, meals, instruction, and materials.

Cost for National Park Service employees: $139. Please call 865-448-6709 for discount code. Enter discount code when you register online.
