What We Do

We support activities that provide continuing education for professional soil scientists and promote the understanding of soils. MAPSS offers:
  • Summer meetings where we go outside to look at soils, landscapes, geology, soil use, etc.
  • Winter meetings where we provide a forum for speakers to talk about advances in soil science and technology. The winter meeting is held on the first Friday in December.
  • Business meetings at our summer and winter meetings in order to keep members up to date with committees activities.
  • The chance to become an officer of MAPSS.
  • A variety of committees in which to participate.
  • A person we recognize a "Soil Scientist of the Year."
  • The chance to earn continuing education for licensed Professional Soil Scientists.
