I am very lucky that my position allows me to hustle my love for soils! Please have your conservation-minded teens apply for our pre-college program, the Resource Conservation Workshop. I do this in partnership with all of your local soil and water conservation districts. This year, we are doing a centralized application and then I send these back to your SWCD and they make the decision. I would encourage your youth to reach out to your district and ask about this program. Happy to talk more!
Get Your Hands Dirty & Your Mind Blown at the Resource Conservation Workshop!
Ready to swap screen time for stream time? The Resource Conservation Workshop is a weeklong deep dive into the world of conservation, where you’ll explore natural resources, tackle real-world environmental challenges, and get hands-on with soil, water, forestry, and wildlife. This isn’t just sitting in a classroom—think field studies, outdoor adventures, and behind-the-scenes tours of conservation hotspots. Plus, evening sessions help you navigate college and career choices (because, let’s be real, adulting is coming). Oh, and did we mention scholarships and awards are up for grabs?
You'll be living the college life at NC State, staying in dorms, meeting awesome people, and learning at places like Williams Hall, Lake Wheeler Soils Field Lab, Falls Lake State Recreation Area, and Clemmons State Educational Forest. It’s the perfect mix of hands-on science, outdoor exploration, and future-planning.
Bonus: It’s free to attend (thanks to our sponsors, including NC State’s Crop and Soil Sciences Department, the NC Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services, and other conservation champions). If you’re curious about how to protect the planet—and want to level up your skills for the future—this is the workshop for you. Apply now and get ready for a week of adventure, learning, and maybe even a scholarship!
