Equitable access to lands protected by Sonoma Land Trust

Nature walks and guided hikes create connections with nature, build outdoor skills and ecological knowledge, and provide opportunities for equitable access to lands protected by Sonoma Land Trust.

We’re thrilled to welcome our 2025–2026 intern cohort of talented local students who come to us through our partnerships with Santa Rosa Junior College and Sonoma State University. Six will serve as Outings Interns through May, learning how to safely guide community hikes while sharing the incredible work of Sonoma Land Trust.
