In a turbulent year, we have decided to hold the event online. We will miss seeing everyone in person, but we will relish the ability for all to participate without breaking the bank.

Theme sessions will explore the ways in which we can “get ahead of the curve” by focusing efforts on the early stages of the “invasion curve.” This means employing strategies of prevention and early detection/rapid response – strategies that are simple conceptually but more complex in practice. Speakers will share their work at the local, regional, and statewide levels.

Other sessions will dig into a wide range of topics on invasive plant management and stewardship. If you’re looking for in-person learning, join one of our Practitioner Workshops this fall.

The Symposium is now approved for 15 total DPR Continuing Education Credits! (2 Laws & Regs. and 13 “Other”) See you in October!
