News Brief

Natural Resources Conservation Workshop June 7-8 The Natural Resources Conservation Workshop is a weeklong deep dive into the world of conservation, where high school students will get to explore natural resources and get hands-on with soil, water, forestry, wildlife, and Georgia's mining industry.

This isn’t just sitting in a classroom— think field studies, outdoor adventures, and behind-the-scenes tours of conservation hotspots.

Over $20,000 in scholarships and awards are up for grabs. Students live college life at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College, staying in dorms, meeting awesome people, and learning. It’s the perfect mix of hands-on science, outdoor exploration, and future planning.

The event is free and transportation is provided thanks to Georgia's Soil and Water Conservation Districts.

The event will be held June 7-12, 2026 at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College in Tifton, GA. Interested high school students can apply by contacting Director Michelle Conner at [email protected] .
