Caring For Our Watersheds is a program that empowers students to imagine, develop, and create solutions in their local watersheds. The program promotes watershed awareness and stewardship, values student ideas, and offers support when turning theoretical ideas into action. Judges in the environmental field score student entries and ten projects are selected to compete in the final competition which was held on April 27th. $10,000 in implementation funding (up to $1,000 per project) is available to all participants, allowing each and every idea to be turned into a reality. At the final event, students presented their projects and finalists received cash awards and matching grants for their schools.
Caring For Our Watersheds is a joint program of the Hamilton County Soil & Water Conservation District and Nutrien Ltd.
