Testimonials

Check out what our Crewmembers have to say about OEC!

"I learned a lot during this spring season. I gained a lot of skills in the field. This was my first time planting a tree. I also appreciate how we were offered opportunities to grow outside of work. One thing that will carry on me with me is the importance of safety. I feel like OEC is a great program for young adults like myself to develop skills and utilize resources to take the next step in our future. I also feel like OEC is a great program to help clean up our community.”

James Walker

AYA Crewmember, 2022

"When you work for OEC, you work for the people. That's what I like most."

Sidi Ramazani

Crewmember, 2014

"OEC has been my favorite job yet, and I've had plenty. The team here comes from all walks of life and the dedication to respect and professionalism is deeply inspiring. I feel very grateful to have the support of this organization as I develop my career."​

Sarah Welz

“After I plant trees I am exhausted. Yet, I like trees more than ever! Some admire trees for their flowers. Some admire trees for their fruit. I admire how the community looks better with trees.”

Alex Hines

YA Crewmember, 2019

"It [Earth Corps] shaped a lot of my interests in the environment; you know what people are doing to the planet now. Not only appreciate the plant and what it has done for us, but how we can reverse the negative effects."
