The article analyzes the national nature traditions as a systemic pedagogical phenomenon. It is grounded that the historical stability of the ethnos ensured the continuity of its interaction with the natural environment, during which the nature traditions recorded the most characteristic features of local ecological systems, their main natural components.
It is proved that the basis of the formation of folk nature conservation traditions is the spiritual nature of the interaction of the people with the natural environment, which was formed during more than a thousand years under the influence of the Christian world outlook.
The systematic nature of folk nature conservation traditions is determined from the point of view of their functionality and content.
It is substantiated that the system of folk tradition of careful attitude to the natural environment is due to natural factors. This conclusion is based on the fact that the historical stability of the ethnic group ensured the continuity of its interaction with the geographical environment. During this long interaction traditions recorded the most characteristic, significant and persistent features of the local ecological system, the main natural components - space factors, relief, soil, climate, water, flora and fauna. Environmental conservation tradition is a kind of system of systems, that is, it acts as a tradition of traditions
