Horticultural Science Summer Institute, July 7th-12, 2019
(We are already halfway full and love to have more 4-H'ers attend!)
High school students are invited to spend a week exploring the many facets of the Department of Horticultural Science at NC State. The HSSI students live on campus in a residence hall, experience campus dining, and participate in workshops designed to engage them to the many career opportunities within horticulture. Youth will have hands-on opportunities to explore breeding better fruits and vegetables, growing a diverse selection of woody ornamentals, lengthening the life of cut flowers, learning sustainable production and design practices and delving into practical tools that enhance our understanding of plant processes. Students will have the unique opportunity to visit NC farms, markets, greenhouses and gardens.
Youth will also explore college-making decisions and leadership development and enjoy evening entertainment and team-building activities. The camp provides an close-knit forum for students across the state (and country) to gather together and broaden their interest and knowledge about horticulture and NC State. Read about it here!
