Community Service Corner

We’ve had some exciting opportunities recently to teach the next generation about some of our products and soils, as well as how to get started in the agronomic industry. These first photos come from a drizzly day at Knollwood Country Club, where Dr. Paul Giordano taught 80 4th grade students using helpful (and eye catching) visual aids like cheeseballs and skittles! The kids had a ton of fun learning the ins and outs of soils and how they function on the golf course. This second event comes from Cleveland Heights Golf Club in Lakeland where Sales Director, Adam Ellison, along with Vice President of Business Development, Marketing, and R&D, Jason Frank, taught 40 students coming from 2 different summer camps about how wetting agents like CP Pellets work. For a visual aid, Adam conducted an experience using dish soap to show how wetting agents break water tension and allow water to get deep into soils. The kids even got to try out the hose! We’re grateful for these opportunities to teach the kiddos, and it’s encouraging to see so many people growing up with an interest in the green industry.
