EVENT: Greening the Landscape Conversations - The New Growing Medium Section of the Canadian Landscape Standard (Nov 22, Zoom)
Tuesday, November 22 @ 11 AM
Virtual via Zoom
Vineland’s Greening the Landscape Research Consortium members ranked soil standards for tree establishment and health as their topic of greatest interest. No wonder, soils are the foundation to our urban forestry dreams.
This past year, Vineland Research and Innovation Centre rewrote Section 5 of the Canadian Landscape Standard (CLS) on Growing Medium, taking an evidence-based approach rooted in consultation, collaboration and soil science. The new standard is designed to guide best practices on the ground, giving practitioners the evidence-based knowledge, tools and resources they need to help trees succeed.
Join the one-hour conversation with panelists:
Ron Koudys, Principal Landscape Architect of the CLS Committee
Steve Robinson, President of the ISA Ontario Board
Dr. Rhoda deJonge, Director of Vineland’s Plant Responses and the Environment program
