Michigan Envirothon
Hands-on environmental education that empowers Michigan high school students to solve real-world natural resource challenges—guided by local experts and Conservation Districts.
What is Envirothon?
A statewide, team-based natural resources competition blending field learning, STEM, leadership, and stewardship.
Envirothon is a year-long program where students study core topics—forestry, soils, wildlife, aquatics, and a rotating current issue—then present solutions and compete at regional and state events. Teams work with mentors, practice in the field, and build presentation and career skills.
Core Topics & Rotating Issue
Forestry • Soils & Land Use • Aquatic Ecology • Wildlife • Current Issue
Teams build leadership, teamwork, and career skills while applying science to local conservation challenges.
Hands-on Learning Across Michigan
Water quality testing, greenhouse lessons, forestry ID, and wildlife tracking—guided by local experts.

Why Envirothon Matters
The Michigan Envirothon isn’t just a competition—it’s a gateway into environmental careers, scientific thinking, and civic responsibility. Many past participants have gone on to study natural resources, biology, environmental policy, and more.
It’s where future land stewards take their first steps.
