Apply to GBN

Applications for the 2025 Georgia Beloved Naturalist cohort have closed. 

Learn more about GBN on our program page or in the photo galleries. 

Deadline: January 15, 2025, at 11:59pm Eastern.
Cost: $500 

This is the true cost per participant of running the program, including speaker honoraria, space reservations, program materials, and other administrative fees. We urge participants to be prepared to invest in the experience, as GBN in turn invests in a diverse group of instructors and locations. 

However, financial support is available, and we are interested in creating opportunity for all potential cohort members to participate. To be considered, please complete a brief financial support form, which is also linked within the main application. The deadline is the same: January 15, 2025, at 11:59pm Eastern. 

Curious about upcoming cohorts but not quite ready to apply? Please join our interest list so that we know how to reach you about future opportunities.
