 ounded at Franklin Pierce University
in 1996, the Monadnock Institute of Nature, Place and Culture seeks to foster the creation of a place-grounded existence for individuals and communities in the Monadnock Region of New Hampshire and beyond. Through research and through interdisciplinary programs in education, community development, environmental stewardship, and regional heritage, the Monadnock Institute promotes intellectual understanding of and direct experience in the values of place.

 ultivating commitments to specific places is a matter of making connections: with the people around us, with the earth under our feet, with what essayist Scott Russell Sanders calls the "ultimate ground" of our existence. The goal of the Monadnock Institute is to help individuals and communities reawaken intellectual curiosity, replenish stores of patience, and renew commitments between nature and culture.
