Founded in 1967, the Soil Science Society of North Carolina (SSSNC) is a professional nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the science and practice of soil science across the state. Our members include researchers, educators, regulatory personnel, consultants, environmental health specialists, and students—all united by a shared commitment to the study and stewardship of North Carolina’s soils. 

SSSNC is a 100% volunteer-led, member-supported nonprofit organization. We are proud to be affiliated with the Soil Science Society of America and welcome members from all soil science disciplines.

We host an annual meeting each year in Raleigh, where members gather to share research, recognize outstanding contributions to the field, and support students through scholarship and networking opportunities.
