Grand Circle Field School

Grand Circle Field School’s mission is to foster stewardship of the environment through active education and research about the natural and cultural history of the Colorado Plateau.

“as we walk the land, read the sky, bless the rain in the river, we come to understand and cherish these extraordinary places.” – Ann Zwinger

Grand Circle Field School

Grand Circle Field School was founded in 2003 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization to partner with the National Park Service and Bureau of Land Management to serve the vast public lands of the Colorado Plateau in Arizona, Utah, New Mexico and Colorado. We assisted our partners, Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument, Vermilion Cliffs National Monument and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, to fulfill their federal mandate to provide education about our public lands to the people who visit them.

Though we no longer offer our own courses, other partners on the Colorado Plateau continue to provide classes and are important advocates for this incredible region. You can find them on our Partners & Links page.
