Our Calendar

This is a four-part series intended to educate landowners and other stakeholders about the when, where, and whys of herbicide use. This educational series will cover both terrestrial and aquatic applications as well as highlight the importance of understanding the potential environmental impacts around this treatment strategy.

Each session will consist of a 1-hour presentation from one of our speakers and will also include 30 minutes at the end of each presentation for participants to ask questions.
