Our Native Landscape Management Apprenticeship continues to shine. Check out this program’s recent updates.
Native Landscape Apprenticeship Continues to Grow
Our Native Landscape Management Apprenticeship is ramping up! We recently hired two new apprentices: Yoni and Janett. We’re taking a look at this past year’s progress and plans for the summer season.
Restore: Nurturing Nature's Next Generation
This year, we witnessed how a single field trip can spark a lifelong journey in conservation. For Jahore Vann, a junior at The Howard School, that spark has grown into a blazing passion for environmental stewardship through our Native Landscape Apprenticeship program.
Apprenticeship Update - Fall 2024
Our apprentices continue to learn land stewardship through invasive removal, botanical knowledge, and career development. Our Lead Naturalist, Emily Jackson, gives an account of their progress throughout the third quarter of 2024.
Gaining Ground for Land Conservation
This past year, we welcomed 455 students from The Howard School to our campus and hired three Native Landscape Management Apprentices—Jahore Vann, Blandy Lopez, and Maria Alonzo Francisco.
Engaging Students in Hands-On Conservation Work
Thanks to generous support from United Way, Reflection Riding has partnered with Howard High School to engage their students in conservation work and establish a career pathway in conservation and native landscape management. We are excited to announce that we have recently hired two Howard students as Native Landscape Management Apprentices to get hands-on experience working outdoors and restoring native biodiversity.
