Why attend

Hotter summers, stronger storms and stricter water rules are changing every garden, lawn and grounds contract in the region. This conference brings together the designers, growers, arborists, irrigation engineers and contractors working it out.

Hear what is thriving, learn what to plant and how to care for it, and get your hands dirty in the Demo Yard.
