Mississippi Forestry Association to Host 2026 Teachers Conservation Workshops
Mississippi Forestry Association (MFA) is pleased to be offering in-person Teachers Conservation Workshops this summer. Workshops will be held at Jones College in Ellisville from May 31 to June 5, and at Northeast Mississippi Community College in Booneville from June 14 to 19.

Teachers Conservation Workshops are hands-on workshops with an emphasis on forests and other natural resources. Participants learn by demonstration and practical exercises how natural resources education can be integrated into the classroom. Workshop participants will go on field trips to sawmills, Tree Farms, and other natural resource sites. Participants will also be certified to use teaching materials of the nationally acclaimed environmental education curriculum, Project Learning Tree.

Instructors include professionals from many of Mississippi’s forestry-related agencies, organizations, and companies. The Ellisville and Booneville workshops each qualify for 5.0 CEUs. There is a small fee for each workshop, but scholarships are available.
