Hands-on learning is one of the best ways to discover new career possibilities, and these students were ready to jump right in!

Cracklin’ Rosie” stole the show at this week’s Biochar Workshop! 🔥🌱

Built by UFV welding students, the charcoal retort was featured during a hands-on workshop led by Dr. Emily Samuels-Ballantyne in partnership with Earthwise Farm in Agassiz.

Participants explored several methods of making biochar, from traditional trench and pit methods to the impressive “Cracklin’ Rosie” kiln setup. The workshop created exciting conversations around regenerative agriculture, soil health, and innovative approaches to sustainable farming.

A huge thank you to everyone who participated and helped make the workshop such a success — and special recognition to our talented UFV welding students for bringing “Cracklin’ Rosie” to life! 👏🔥

💪✨ Women in Trades – Explore Trades Sampler ✨💪

We had an incredible session welcoming SkilledTradesBC and BCCWITT (BC Centre for Women in the Trades) to speak with our students about opportunities in the skilled trades!

The presentation highlighted pathways, supports, and real-world insights into pursuing a career in the trades as a woman — encouraging confidence, curiosity, and breaking barriers in traditionally male-dominated fields.

It was inspiring to see so much interest and engagement from the group as they explored what a future in the trades can look like. 🔧⚡

A big thank you to SkilledTradesBC and BCCWITT for sharing your knowledge and empowering the next generation of tradeswomen!
