Come celebrate the 21st year of this not-to-be-missed symposium geared towards landscape architects, designers, contractors, land planners, municipal officials and homeowners.

This year, expect lively dialog on topics ranging the restoration of the American chestnut to the future of urban park design. Continuing education credits will be available.
