In this full-day class, students will learn the fundamental knowledge necessary to describe soil physical properties to make interpretations for on-lot septic system placement and other environmental site assessment needs.

Students will learn principles of soil science in the classroom and then apply those principles in the field with hands-on activities while conducting real-world observations of soil physical properties, including describing properties of each soil horizon.
