Soil Health and Agriculture is the theme for 2026-2027

Our Regional Qualifiers will be held April 28, 2027 at Saugeen Bluffs Conservation Area in Paisley, Ontario.

As usual, teams consist of 5 high schoolers (through your school or a local youth group) and the winning team will represent the region in the Provincial Qualifiers run by Forests Canada. Then the International competition is in Maryland, USA in July 2027. Don't worry, local experts will support your learning this year with a school visit if you need one, and The Sustainability Project will assist with some financial support, thanks in part to Bruce Power and Stewardship Grey Bruce!

Quick History

Envirothon began as the Enviro-Olympics almost 50 years ago, a hands-on outdoor competition designed to challenge and test student's knowledge of soils/land use, aquatic ecology, forestry, wildlife and current environmental issues, and the first Canadian team participated internationally in 1992.

Stewardship Grey Bruce has run the regional competition but has shared the hosting with The Sustainability Project in recent years. We thank Stewardship Grey Bruce for all the successful teams and learners that have blossomed in the region... many Envirothon students go on to hold jobs in conservation, with leadership roles to make a brighter future for everyone in Grey-Bruce.
