Throughout the week, 31 campers delved into the world of resource stewardship, learning about the importance of protecting and preserving our environment.
Students observe and instructor at Camp Rocky 2023From interactive workshops to hands-on activities, they have gained a deeper understanding of sustainable land use, wildfire mitigation, and the interdependence of ecosystems.
At Camp Rocky, students get the opportunity to work side by side with trained professionals in the fields of rangeland science, forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management. Through team projects, problem-solving activities, and mentorship, they learn the importance of effective communication, cooperation, and leadership.
Importantly for youth learning progression, many of this year’s campers were returning attendees, with several enjoying their second or even third year at Camp Rocky.
Through their support, Conservation Districts play an important role in the cultivation of the next generation of conservationists by sponsoring campers across Colorado.
Junior Leaders, Camp Rocky 2023“My favorite part of Camp Rocky is definitely the community. Plus all the opportunities are amazing,” said one of the campers from northeast Colorado. “And I’ve met so many friends from across the state. It’s just really amazing.”
Almost all of the campers were sponsored by Conservation Districts to some degree – affording them the opportunity to make lifelong memories and friends, and to give them the beginning tools to pursue careers in resource conservation.
Ben Berlinger, Rangeland Management Specialist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service, was one of the instructors leading the rangeland science cohort for the week.
Range Clipping, Camp Rocky 2023“The campers in the range management discipline come away with an appreciation of rangelands and the many values healthy rangelands provide to humans,” Berlinger said. “They have a working knowledge and skills in rangeland plant identification, how to assess the quality of the rangeland in terms of biological diversity/productivity, and prescribed grazing management techniques.”
The utilization of hands-on learning is what lies at the heart of the Camp Rocky experience. Activities for the week for the range management group included plant identification, collecting plant samples, and making plant presses. Additionally, they gained experience in calculating stocking rates for pastures and ultimately put their knowledge to the test in their final project – creating a range management plan for an on-site llama grazing pasture.
Removing a core sample, Camp Rocky 2023Across camp, the forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management groups were equally as busy. The up-and-coming foresters worked on tree identification, learned about slope aspect and forest density, and took tree core samples to identify tree ages.
Simultaneously, the soil and water group learned about soil profiles and gained experience taking soil samples, while the fish and wildlife management group worked side-by-side Colorado Parks and Wildlife staff as they conducted a fish survey in a nearby stream via electrofishing (a non-lethal fishing technique that uses an underwater direct current electricity to determine abundance, density and species composition of fish).
Electrofishing at Camp Rocky 2023Campers donned waders and equipped themselves with fishnets as they helped CPW professionals collect the stunned fish to help gather the data.
By the end of the week, the budding natural resource professionals had implemented their very own resource management projects.
Soil sampling at Camp Rocky 2023In addition to the range management plan, other group projects included resource management plans for aspen grove support, assessing local stream CFS (cubic feet per second) flows, and wildlife camera surveys.
While there was certainly a lot of learning and work taking place, there was also room for lots of fun – with activities ranging from scenic hikes and campfires, to obstacle courses and talent shows. Of course, the fan favorite Camp Rocky tradition of glow-in-the-dark capture the flag continued for another exciting year of fun filled competition.
Noah McCord, Camp Director, highlighted the overall goal of Camp Rocky,
“We hope that the lessons learned and friendships forged at Camp Rocky will inspire our campers to become lifelong stewards of our natural resources,” McCord said.

Drupal\\entity_embed\\Plugin\\Filter\\EntityEmbedFilter->process('From all corners of the state, high schoolers converged in Divide, Colorado to learn about natural resource conservation in a week-long immersive Camp Rocky experience. Throughout the week, 31 campers delved into the world of resource stewardship, learning about the importance of protecting and preserving our environment.
Students observe and instructor at Camp Rocky 2023From interactive workshops to hands-on activities, they have gained a deeper understanding of sustainable land use, wildfire mitigation, and the interdependence of ecosystems.
At Camp Rocky, students get the opportunity to work side by side with trained professionals in the fields of rangeland science, forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management. Through team projects, problem-solving activities, and mentorship, they learn the importance of effective communication, cooperation, and leadership.
Importantly for youth learning progression, many of this year’s campers were returning attendees, with several enjoying their second or even third year at Camp Rocky.
Through their support, Conservation Districts play an important role in the cultivation of the next generation of conservationists by sponsoring campers across Colorado.
Junior Leaders, Camp Rocky 2023“My favorite part of Camp Rocky is definitely the community. Plus all the opportunities are amazing,” said one of the campers from northeast Colorado. “And I’ve met so many friends from across the state. It’s just really amazing.”
Almost all of the campers were sponsored by Conservation Districts to some degree – affording them the opportunity to make lifelong memories and friends, and to give them the beginning tools to pursue careers in resource conservation.
Ben Berlinger, Rangeland Management Specialist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service, was one of the instructors leading the rangeland science cohort for the week.
Range Clipping, Camp Rocky 2023“The campers in the range management discipline come away with an appreciation of rangelands and the many values healthy rangelands provide to humans,” Berlinger said. “They have a working knowledge and skills in rangeland plant identification, how to assess the quality of the rangeland in terms of biological diversity/productivity, and prescribed grazing management techniques.”
The utilization of hands-on learning is what lies at the heart of the Camp Rocky experience. Activities for the week for the range management group included plant identification, collecting plant samples, and making plant presses. Additionally, they gained experience in calculating stocking rates for pastures and ultimately put their knowledge to the test in their final project – creating a range management plan for an on-site llama grazing pasture.
Removing a core sample, Camp Rocky 2023Across camp, the forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management groups were equally as busy. The up-and-coming foresters worked on tree identification, learned about slope aspect and forest density, and took tree core samples to identify tree ages.
Simultaneously, the soil and water group learned about soil profiles and gained experience taking soil samples, while the fish and wildlife management group worked side-by-side Colorado Parks and Wildlife staff as they conducted a fish survey in a nearby stream via electrofishing (a non-lethal fishing technique that uses an underwater direct current electricity to determine abundance, density and species composition of fish).
Electrofishing at Camp Rocky 2023Campers donned waders and equipped themselves with fishnets as they helped CPW professionals collect the stunned fish to help gather the data.
By the end of the week, the budding natural resource professionals had implemented their very own resource management projects.
Soil sampling at Camp Rocky 2023In addition to the range management plan, other group projects included resource management plans for aspen grove support, assessing local stream CFS (cubic feet per second) flows, and wildlife camera surveys.
While there was certainly a lot of learning and work taking place, there was also room for lots of fun – with activities ranging from scenic hikes and campfires, to obstacle courses and talent shows. Of course, the fan favorite Camp Rocky tradition of glow-in-the-dark capture the flag continued for another exciting year of fun filled competition.
Noah McCord, Camp Director, highlighted the overall goal of Camp Rocky,
“We hope that the lessons learned and friendships forged at Camp Rocky will inspire our campers to become lifelong stewards of our natural resources,” McCord said.

Throughout the week, 31 campers delved into the world of resource stewardship, learning about the importance of protecting and preserving our environment.
Students observe and instructor at Camp Rocky 2023From interactive workshops to hands-on activities, they have gained a deeper understanding of sustainable land use, wildfire mitigation, and the interdependence of ecosystems.
At Camp Rocky, students get the opportunity to work side by side with trained professionals in the fields of rangeland science, forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management. Through team projects, problem-solving activities, and mentorship, they learn the importance of effective communication, cooperation, and leadership.
Importantly for youth learning progression, many of this year’s campers were returning attendees, with several enjoying their second or even third year at Camp Rocky.
Through their support, Conservation Districts play an important role in the cultivation of the next generation of conservationists by sponsoring campers across Colorado.
Junior Leaders, Camp Rocky 2023“My favorite part of Camp Rocky is definitely the community. Plus all the opportunities are amazing,” said one of the campers from northeast Colorado. “And I’ve met so many friends from across the state. It’s just really amazing.”
Almost all of the campers were sponsored by Conservation Districts to some degree – affording them the opportunity to make lifelong memories and friends, and to give them the beginning tools to pursue careers in resource conservation.
Ben Berlinger, Rangeland Management Specialist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service, was one of the instructors leading the rangeland science cohort for the week.
Range Clipping, Camp Rocky 2023“The campers in the range management discipline come away with an appreciation of rangelands and the many values healthy rangelands provide to humans,” Berlinger said. “They have a working knowledge and skills in rangeland plant identification, how to assess the quality of the rangeland in terms of biological diversity/productivity, and prescribed grazing management techniques.”
The utilization of hands-on learning is what lies at the heart of the Camp Rocky experience. Activities for the week for the range management group included plant identification, collecting plant samples, and making plant presses. Additionally, they gained experience in calculating stocking rates for pastures and ultimately put their knowledge to the test in their final project – creating a range management plan for an on-site llama grazing pasture.
Removing a core sample, Camp Rocky 2023Across camp, the forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management groups were equally as busy. The up-and-coming foresters worked on tree identification, learned about slope aspect and forest density, and took tree core samples to identify tree ages.
Simultaneously, the soil and water group learned about soil profiles and gained experience taking soil samples, while the fish and wildlife management group worked side-by-side Colorado Parks and Wildlife staff as they conducted a fish survey in a nearby stream via electrofishing (a non-lethal fishing technique that uses an underwater direct current electricity to determine abundance, density and species composition of fish).
Electrofishing at Camp Rocky 2023Campers donned waders and equipped themselves with fishnets as they helped CPW professionals collect the stunned fish to help gather the data.
By the end of the week, the budding natural resource professionals had implemented their very own resource management projects.
Soil sampling at Camp Rocky 2023In addition to the range management plan, other group projects included resource management plans for aspen grove support, assessing local stream CFS (cubic feet per second) flows, and wildlife camera surveys.
While there was certainly a lot of learning and work taking place, there was also room for lots of fun – with activities ranging from scenic hikes and campfires, to obstacle courses and talent shows. Of course, the fan favorite Camp Rocky tradition of glow-in-the-dark capture the flag continued for another exciting year of fun filled competition.
Noah McCord, Camp Director, highlighted the overall goal of Camp Rocky,
“We hope that the lessons learned and friendships forged at Camp Rocky will inspire our campers to become lifelong stewards of our natural resources,” McCord said.

Throughout the week, 31 campers delved into the world of resource stewardship, learning about the importance of protecting and preserving our environment.
Students observe and instructor at Camp Rocky 2023From interactive workshops to hands-on activities, they have gained a deeper understanding of sustainable land use, wildfire mitigation, and the interdependence of ecosystems.
At Camp Rocky, students get the opportunity to work side by side with trained professionals in the fields of rangeland science, forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management. Through team projects, problem-solving activities, and mentorship, they learn the importance of effective communication, cooperation, and leadership.
Importantly for youth learning progression, many of this year’s campers were returning attendees, with several enjoying their second or even third year at Camp Rocky.
Through their support, Conservation Districts play an important role in the cultivation of the next generation of conservationists by sponsoring campers across Colorado.
Junior Leaders, Camp Rocky 2023“My favorite part of Camp Rocky is definitely the community. Plus all the opportunities are amazing,” said one of the campers from northeast Colorado. “And I’ve met so many friends from across the state. It’s just really amazing.”
Almost all of the campers were sponsored by Conservation Districts to some degree – affording them the opportunity to make lifelong memories and friends, and to give them the beginning tools to pursue careers in resource conservation.
Ben Berlinger, Rangeland Management Specialist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service, was one of the instructors leading the rangeland science cohort for the week.
Range Clipping, Camp Rocky 2023“The campers in the range management discipline come away with an appreciation of rangelands and the many values healthy rangelands provide to humans,” Berlinger said. “They have a working knowledge and skills in rangeland plant identification, how to assess the quality of the rangeland in terms of biological diversity/productivity, and prescribed grazing management techniques.”
The utilization of hands-on learning is what lies at the heart of the Camp Rocky experience. Activities for the week for the range management group included plant identification, collecting plant samples, and making plant presses. Additionally, they gained experience in calculating stocking rates for pastures and ultimately put their knowledge to the test in their final project – creating a range management plan for an on-site llama grazing pasture.
Removing a core sample, Camp Rocky 2023Across camp, the forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management groups were equally as busy. The up-and-coming foresters worked on tree identification, learned about slope aspect and forest density, and took tree core samples to identify tree ages.
Simultaneously, the soil and water group learned about soil profiles and gained experience taking soil samples, while the fish and wildlife management group worked side-by-side Colorado Parks and Wildlife staff as they conducted a fish survey in a nearby stream via electrofishing (a non-lethal fishing technique that uses an underwater direct current electricity to determine abundance, density and species composition of fish).
Electrofishing at Camp Rocky 2023Campers donned waders and equipped themselves with fishnets as they helped CPW professionals collect the stunned fish to help gather the data.
By the end of the week, the budding natural resource professionals had implemented their very own resource management projects.
Soil sampling at Camp Rocky 2023In addition to the range management plan, other group projects included resource management plans for aspen grove support, assessing local stream CFS (cubic feet per second) flows, and wildlife camera surveys.
While there was certainly a lot of learning and work taking place, there was also room for lots of fun – with activities ranging from scenic hikes and campfires, to obstacle courses and talent shows. Of course, the fan favorite Camp Rocky tradition of glow-in-the-dark capture the flag continued for another exciting year of fun filled competition.
Noah McCord, Camp Director, highlighted the overall goal of Camp Rocky,
“We hope that the lessons learned and friendships forged at Camp Rocky will inspire our campers to become lifelong stewards of our natural resources,” McCord said.

Throughout the week, 31 campers delved into the world of resource stewardship, learning about the importance of protecting and preserving our environment.
Students observe and instructor at Camp Rocky 2023From interactive workshops to hands-on activities, they have gained a deeper understanding of sustainable land use, wildfire mitigation, and the interdependence of ecosystems.
At Camp Rocky, students get the opportunity to work side by side with trained professionals in the fields of rangeland science, forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management. Through team projects, problem-solving activities, and mentorship, they learn the importance of effective communication, cooperation, and leadership.
Importantly for youth learning progression, many of this year’s campers were returning attendees, with several enjoying their second or even third year at Camp Rocky.
Through their support, Conservation Districts play an important role in the cultivation of the next generation of conservationists by sponsoring campers across Colorado.
Junior Leaders, Camp Rocky 2023“My favorite part of Camp Rocky is definitely the community. Plus all the opportunities are amazing,” said one of the campers from northeast Colorado. “And I’ve met so many friends from across the state. It’s just really amazing.”
Almost all of the campers were sponsored by Conservation Districts to some degree – affording them the opportunity to make lifelong memories and friends, and to give them the beginning tools to pursue careers in resource conservation.
Ben Berlinger, Rangeland Management Specialist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service, was one of the instructors leading the rangeland science cohort for the week.
Range Clipping, Camp Rocky 2023“The campers in the range management discipline come away with an appreciation of rangelands and the many values healthy rangelands provide to humans,” Berlinger said. “They have a working knowledge and skills in rangeland plant identification, how to assess the quality of the rangeland in terms of biological diversity/productivity, and prescribed grazing management techniques.”
The utilization of hands-on learning is what lies at the heart of the Camp Rocky experience. Activities for the week for the range management group included plant identification, collecting plant samples, and making plant presses. Additionally, they gained experience in calculating stocking rates for pastures and ultimately put their knowledge to the test in their final project – creating a range management plan for an on-site llama grazing pasture.
Removing a core sample, Camp Rocky 2023Across camp, the forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management groups were equally as busy. The up-and-coming foresters worked on tree identification, learned about slope aspect and forest density, and took tree core samples to identify tree ages.
Simultaneously, the soil and water group learned about soil profiles and gained experience taking soil samples, while the fish and wildlife management group worked side-by-side Colorado Parks and Wildlife staff as they conducted a fish survey in a nearby stream via electrofishing (a non-lethal fishing technique that uses an underwater direct current electricity to determine abundance, density and species composition of fish).
Electrofishing at Camp Rocky 2023Campers donned waders and equipped themselves with fishnets as they helped CPW professionals collect the stunned fish to help gather the data.
By the end of the week, the budding natural resource professionals had implemented their very own resource management projects.
Soil sampling at Camp Rocky 2023In addition to the range management plan, other group projects included resource management plans for aspen grove support, assessing local stream CFS (cubic feet per second) flows, and wildlife camera surveys.
While there was certainly a lot of learning and work taking place, there was also room for lots of fun – with activities ranging from scenic hikes and campfires, to obstacle courses and talent shows. Of course, the fan favorite Camp Rocky tradition of glow-in-the-dark capture the flag continued for another exciting year of fun filled competition.
Noah McCord, Camp Director, highlighted the overall goal of Camp Rocky,
“We hope that the lessons learned and friendships forged at Camp Rocky will inspire our campers to become lifelong stewards of our natural resources,” McCord said.

Throughout the week, 31 campers delved into the world of resource stewardship, learning about the importance of protecting and preserving our environment.
Students observe and instructor at Camp Rocky 2023From interactive workshops to hands-on activities, they have gained a deeper understanding of sustainable land use, wildfire mitigation, and the interdependence of ecosystems.
At Camp Rocky, students get the opportunity to work side by side with trained professionals in the fields of rangeland science, forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management. Through team projects, problem-solving activities, and mentorship, they learn the importance of effective communication, cooperation, and leadership.
Importantly for youth learning progression, many of this year’s campers were returning attendees, with several enjoying their second or even third year at Camp Rocky.
Through their support, Conservation Districts play an important role in the cultivation of the next generation of conservationists by sponsoring campers across Colorado.
Junior Leaders, Camp Rocky 2023“My favorite part of Camp Rocky is definitely the community. Plus all the opportunities are amazing,” said one of the campers from northeast Colorado. “And I’ve met so many friends from across the state. It’s just really amazing.”
Almost all of the campers were sponsored by Conservation Districts to some degree – affording them the opportunity to make lifelong memories and friends, and to give them the beginning tools to pursue careers in resource conservation.
Ben Berlinger, Rangeland Management Specialist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service, was one of the instructors leading the rangeland science cohort for the week.
Range Clipping, Camp Rocky 2023“The campers in the range management discipline come away with an appreciation of rangelands and the many values healthy rangelands provide to humans,” Berlinger said. “They have a working knowledge and skills in rangeland plant identification, how to assess the quality of the rangeland in terms of biological diversity/productivity, and prescribed grazing management techniques.”
The utilization of hands-on learning is what lies at the heart of the Camp Rocky experience. Activities for the week for the range management group included plant identification, collecting plant samples, and making plant presses. Additionally, they gained experience in calculating stocking rates for pastures and ultimately put their knowledge to the test in their final project – creating a range management plan for an on-site llama grazing pasture.
Removing a core sample, Camp Rocky 2023Across camp, the forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management groups were equally as busy. The up-and-coming foresters worked on tree identification, learned about slope aspect and forest density, and took tree core samples to identify tree ages.
Simultaneously, the soil and water group learned about soil profiles and gained experience taking soil samples, while the fish and wildlife management group worked side-by-side Colorado Parks and Wildlife staff as they conducted a fish survey in a nearby stream via electrofishing (a non-lethal fishing technique that uses an underwater direct current electricity to determine abundance, density and species composition of fish).
Electrofishing at Camp Rocky 2023Campers donned waders and equipped themselves with fishnets as they helped CPW professionals collect the stunned fish to help gather the data.
By the end of the week, the budding natural resource professionals had implemented their very own resource management projects.
Soil sampling at Camp Rocky 2023In addition to the range management plan, other group projects included resource management plans for aspen grove support, assessing local stream CFS (cubic feet per second) flows, and wildlife camera surveys.
While there was certainly a lot of learning and work taking place, there was also room for lots of fun – with activities ranging from scenic hikes and campfires, to obstacle courses and talent shows. Of course, the fan favorite Camp Rocky tradition of glow-in-the-dark capture the flag continued for another exciting year of fun filled competition.
Noah McCord, Camp Director, highlighted the overall goal of Camp Rocky,
“We hope that the lessons learned and friendships forged at Camp Rocky will inspire our campers to become lifelong stewards of our natural resources,” McCord said.

Removing a core sample, Camp Rocky 2023Across camp, the forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management groups were equally as busy. The up-and-coming foresters worked on tree identification, learned about slope aspect and forest density, and took tree core samples to identify tree ages.
Simultaneously, the soil and water group learned about soil profiles and gained experience taking soil samples, while the fish and wildlife management group worked side-by-side Colorado Parks and Wildlife staff as they conducted a fish survey in a nearby stream via electrofishing (a non-lethal fishing technique that uses an underwater direct current electricity to determine abundance, density and species composition of fish).
Electrofishing at Camp Rocky 2023Campers donned waders and equipped themselves with fishnets as they helped CPW professionals collect the stunned fish to help gather the data.
By the end of the week, the budding natural resource professionals had implemented their very own resource management projects.
Soil sampling at Camp Rocky 2023In addition to the range management plan, other group projects included resource management plans for aspen grove support, assessing local stream CFS (cubic feet per second) flows, and wildlife camera surveys.
While there was certainly a lot of learning and work taking place, there was also room for lots of fun – with activities ranging from scenic hikes and campfires, to obstacle courses and talent shows. Of course, the fan favorite Camp Rocky tradition of glow-in-the-dark capture the flag continued for another exciting year of fun filled competition.
Noah McCord, Camp Director, highlighted the overall goal of Camp Rocky,
“We hope that the lessons learned and friendships forged at Camp Rocky will inspire our campers to become lifelong stewards of our natural resources,” McCord said.

Drupal\\entity_embed\\Plugin\\Filter\\EntityEmbedFilter->process('From all corners of the state, high schoolers converged in Divide, Colorado to learn about natural resource conservation in a week-long immersive Camp Rocky experience. Throughout the week, 31 campers delved into the world of resource stewardship, learning about the importance of protecting and preserving our environment.
Students observe and instructor at Camp Rocky 2023From interactive workshops to hands-on activities, they have gained a deeper understanding of sustainable land use, wildfire mitigation, and the interdependence of ecosystems.
At Camp Rocky, students get the opportunity to work side by side with trained professionals in the fields of rangeland science, forestry management, soil and water science, and fish and wildlife management. Through team projects, problem-solving activities, and mentorship, they learn the importance of effective communication, cooperation, and leadership.
Importantly for youth learning progression, many of this year’s campers were returning attendees, with several enjoying their second or even third year at Camp Rocky.
Through their support, Conservation Districts play an important role in the cultivation of the next generation of conservationists by sponsoring campers across Colorado.
Junior Leaders, Camp Rocky 2023“My favorite part of Camp Rocky is definitely the community. Plus all the opportunities are amazing,” said one of the campers from northeast Colorado. “And I’ve met so many friends from across the state. It’s just really amazing.”
Almost all of the campers were sponsored by Conservation Districts to some degree – affording them the opportunity to make lifelong memories and friends, and to give them the beginning tools to pursue careers in resource conservation.
Ben Berlinger, Rangeland Management Specialist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service, was one of the instructors leading the rangeland science cohort for the week.
Range Clipping, Camp Rocky 2023“The campers in the range management discipline come away with an appreciation of rangelands and the many values healthy rangelands provide to humans,” Berlinger said. “They have a working knowledge and skills in rangeland plant identification, how to assess the quality of the rangeland in terms of biological diversity/productivity, and prescribed grazing management techniques.”
The utilization of hands-on learning is what lies at the heart of the Camp Rocky experience. Activities for the week for the range management group included plant identification, collecting plant samples, and making plant presses. Additionally, they gained experience in calculating stocking rates for pastures and ultimately put their knowledge to the test in their final project – creating a range management plan for an on-site llama grazing pasture.

The second regional Colorado STAR event took place on Friday, Feb. 24, in Rocky Ford, Colorado. Partners in the event included Acres U.S.A., the Colorado Department of Agriculture and the West Otero Timpas Conservation District.
<em>Kevin Rein, State Engineer, Colorado Department of Water
Resources, presents at the 2nd regional Colorado STAR event
in Rocky Ford on Feb. 24, 2023.</em>The event kicked off with a welcome introduction from Lydia Lazar, Executive Director of Acres U.S.A., and Cindy Lair, with the Colorado Department of Agriculture. The first presentation was given by Kevin Rein, State Engineer of the Colorado Department of Water Resources. Rein focused on explaining how water supply conditions are forecast and how water allocation is administered.
Following Rein were presentations from Meagan Schipanski, Associate Professor of Soil and Crop Sciences at Colorado State University and Erik Wardle, Program Manager of Soil and Crop Sciences at Colorado State University. Schipanski discussed lessons learned from managing soil and crop systems with limited to no irrigation across the Eastern Plains, while Wardle followed up with side-by-side comparisons of nearby STAR research fields and further scientific data around soil and crop management techniques.
<em> Meagan Schipanski, Assoc. Professor, Soil and Crop Sciences,
Colorado State University, presents at the 2nd regional
Colorado STAR event in Rocky Ford, CO, on Feb. 24, 2023</em>Nick Colglazier, Executive Director of Colorado Corn Grower’s Association, presented a practitioner’s perspective on the use of cover crops vs. bare ground to encourage water infiltration.
Colglazier, Schipanski and Wardle then participated in an involved question-and-answer session with event attendees.
Following a break, CDPHE specialist Kenan Diker moderated a panel discussion on “The Nexus Between Soil Health and Water Quality and Quantity” with local producer Phillip Chavez and Tom Seaba, Director of Water Utilities and Motor Pool for the City of La Junta. The three discussed tactics and management of soil health techniques, building soil organic matter and achieving and maintaining water quality.
<em>Nick Colglazier, Meagan Schipanski and Erik Wardle pose for a
photo after a panel discussion on soil health at the 2nd
regional Colorado STAR event in Rocky Ford, CO, on
February 24, 2023.</em>“Every time I put a shovel in the ground, I like to see earthworms coming up,” Chavez said about his farmland. “I like to see our soil healthy.”
A panel of local producers closed out the event – Riley May, Dereck White Heckman and Erik Tucker joined Chavez at the front of the room. The four discussed their experiences with learning about and building soil health on their properties, with Chavez sharing photos of his operation. Each producer answered questions from the audience, including giving advice to others just starting to learn more about soil health practices.
“I was going crazy in a dust storm, watching my farm blow away, and it bothered me,” said Tucker, of his turning point toward soil health-centric agriculture. “It bothered me enough to find answers.” He encouraged others in a similar position to seek out education and not become discouraged too quickly.

The second regional Colorado STAR event took place on Friday, Feb. 24, in Rocky Ford, Colorado. Partners in the event included Acres U.S.A., the Colorado Department of Agriculture and the West Otero Timpas Conservation District.
<em>Kevin Rein, State Engineer, Colorado Department of Water
Resources, presents at the 2nd regional Colorado STAR event
in Rocky Ford on Feb. 24, 2023.</em>The event kicked off with a welcome introduction from Lydia Lazar, Executive Director of Acres U.S.A., and Cindy Lair, with the Colorado Department of Agriculture. The first presentation was given by Kevin Rein, State Engineer of the Colorado Department of Water Resources. Rein focused on explaining how water supply conditions are forecast and how water allocation is administered.
Following Rein were presentations from Meagan Schipanski, Associate Professor of Soil and Crop Sciences at Colorado State University and Erik Wardle, Program Manager of Soil and Crop Sciences at Colorado State University. Schipanski discussed lessons learned from managing soil and crop systems with limited to no irrigation across the Eastern Plains, while Wardle followed up with side-by-side comparisons of nearby STAR research fields and further scientific data around soil and crop management techniques.
<em> Meagan Schipanski, Assoc. Professor, Soil and Crop Sciences,
Colorado State University, presents at the 2nd regional
Colorado STAR event in Rocky Ford, CO, on Feb. 24, 2023</em>Nick Colglazier, Executive Director of Colorado Corn Grower’s Association, presented a practitioner’s perspective on the use of cover crops vs. bare ground to encourage water infiltration.
Colglazier, Schipanski and Wardle then participated in an involved question-and-answer session with event attendees.
Following a break, CDPHE specialist Kenan Diker moderated a panel discussion on “The Nexus Between Soil Health and Water Quality and Quantity” with local producer Phillip Chavez and Tom Seaba, Director of Water Utilities and Motor Pool for the City of La Junta. The three discussed tactics and management of soil health techniques, building soil organic matter and achieving and maintaining water quality.
<em>Nick Colglazier, Meagan Schipanski and Erik Wardle pose for a
photo after a panel discussion on soil health at the 2nd
regional Colorado STAR event in Rocky Ford, CO, on
February 24, 2023.</em>“Every time I put a shovel in the ground, I like to see earthworms coming up,” Chavez said about his farmland. “I like to see our soil healthy.”
A panel of local producers closed out the event – Riley May, Dereck White Heckman and Erik Tucker joined Chavez at the front of the room. The four discussed their experiences with learning about and building soil health on their properties, with Chavez sharing photos of his operation. Each producer answered questions from the audience, including giving advice to others just starting to learn more about soil health practices.
“I was going crazy in a dust storm, watching my farm blow away, and it bothered me,” said Tucker, of his turning point toward soil health-centric agriculture. “It bothered me enough to find answers.” He encouraged others in a similar position to seek out education and not become discouraged too quickly.

The second regional Colorado STAR event took place on Friday, Feb. 24, in Rocky Ford, Colorado. Partners in the event included Acres U.S.A., the Colorado Department of Agriculture and the West Otero Timpas Conservation District.
<em>Kevin Rein, State Engineer, Colorado Department of Water
Resources, presents at the 2nd regional Colorado STAR event
in Rocky Ford on Feb. 24, 2023.</em>The event kicked off with a welcome introduction from Lydia Lazar, Executive Director of Acres U.S.A., and Cindy Lair, with the Colorado Department of Agriculture. The first presentation was given by Kevin Rein, State Engineer of the Colorado Department of Water Resources. Rein focused on explaining how water supply conditions are forecast and how water allocation is administered.
Following Rein were presentations from Meagan Schipanski, Associate Professor of Soil and Crop Sciences at Colorado State University and Erik Wardle, Program Manager of Soil and Crop Sciences at Colorado State University. Schipanski discussed lessons learned from managing soil and crop systems with limited to no irrigation across the Eastern Plains, while Wardle followed up with side-by-side comparisons of nearby STAR research fields and further scientific data around soil and crop management techniques.
<em> Meagan Schipanski, Assoc. Professor, Soil and Crop Sciences,
Colorado State University, presents at the 2nd regional
Colorado STAR event in Rocky Ford, CO, on Feb. 24, 2023</em>Nick Colglazier, Executive Director of Colorado Corn Grower’s Association, presented a practitioner’s perspective on the use of cover crops vs. bare ground to encourage water infiltration.
Colglazier, Schipanski and Wardle then participated in an involved question-and-answer session with event attendees.
Following a break, CDPHE specialist Kenan Diker moderated a panel discussion on “The Nexus Between Soil Health and Water Quality and Quantity” with local producer Phillip Chavez and Tom Seaba, Director of Water Utilities and Motor Pool for the City of La Junta. The three discussed tactics and management of soil health techniques, building soil organic matter and achieving and maintaining water quality.
<em>Nick Colglazier, Meagan Schipanski and Erik Wardle pose for a

regional Colorado STAR event in Rocky Ford, CO, on
February 24, 2023.</em>“Every time I put a shovel in the ground, I like to see earthworms coming up,” Chavez said about his farmland. “I like to see our soil healthy.”
A panel of local producers closed out the event – Riley May, Dereck White Heckman and Erik Tucker joined Chavez at the front of the room. The four discussed their experiences with learning about and building soil health on their properties, with Chavez sharing photos of his operation. Each producer answered questions from the audience, including giving advice to others just starting to learn more about soil health practices.
“I was going crazy in a dust storm, watching my farm blow away, and it bothered me,” said Tucker, of his turning point toward soil health-centric agriculture. “It bothered me enough to find answers.” He encouraged others in a similar position to seek out education and not become discouraged too quickly.
