Warrick County Ag Days 2025
We had a wonderful time teaching the county’s 3rd graders in our 3 seperate stations at Ag Days!
Our stations included
- Each kid receiving a free White Oak sapling, and learning why they are SO much better to have in our yard versus the invasive Callery Pear
- Learning about how rain follows slopes and terrians with our AR rainfall simulation sandbox
- Learning about the water cycle in the water cycle game
There were MANY other very interesting stations that we hope everyone learned a lot from!

SW Indiana Envirothon
On March 11th we had a wonderful opportunity to host the SW Indiana Envirothon!
We had many volunteers that helped make this possible for these lucky highschoolers. We had seven area schools compete and even had 2 teams go to state.
"The Envirothon is an environmental and natural resources conservation problem-solving, leadership experience and academic competition for secondary school (high school) students (grades 9-12 or ages 14-19) across the United States, Canada, China, and Singapore. Incorporating STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) principles, hands-on learning, and outdoor field experiences, the Envirothon fosters student learning in the areas of AQUATIC ECOLOGY, FORESTRY, SOILS and LAND USE, WILDLIFE, and CURRENT ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES."

Lynnville Elementary Education
We had the incredible opportunity to engage with enthusiastic first graders about soil and the vital importance of it! The students were all ears as we explored the different types of soils, how vital worms are to the soil, and they loved learning how important cover crops and keeping plants over soil are to soil health.
