Josh Elliott, NRCS Soil Conservationist, and Patricia Gable, Covington County SWCD Education Specialist, visited Agriculture classrooms at Andalusia High School and Opp High School.

Josh shared his experiences in Ag Education classes and encouraged the students to investigate agricultural related careers. He showed a PowerPoint presentation featuring careers available through NRCS.  He explained that his profession actually impacts lives, in the community, in his state and throughout his country.

Josh presented another presentation that showed some of the practices that have been implemented by the landowners of Covington County.

Mrs. Gable gave flash drives with the PowerPoint presentations of soil related topics and notebooks containing related articles and information to each of the six Ag teachers in Covington County.
