We’re going online! The Ontario Invasive Plant Council is excited to present the Ontario Invasive Plant Conference and Annual General Meeting, and the Ontario Phragmites Working Group Annual Meeting on January 12th and January 19th, respectively.

REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED FOR THE ONTARIO INVASIVE PLANT CONFERENCE (January 12). Tickets are still available for the Ontario Phragmites Working Group Meeting (January 19).

This year’s theme is Making Connections! This year’s theme will focus on the coordination of invasive plant management strategies. We will highlight the interconnectedness of invasive plant management, including the complex relationships between living things in our ecosystem, the transfer of knowledge from one project to the next, and the importance of working relationships within professional networks.

Each year, this unique, two-day event brings together professionals and passionate citizens from across Ontario and beyond. This year’s virtual event will be no different! This interactive event is both a learning opportunity and a great chance to network with others working in the field of invasive plant management. We are excited to support connection in this online venue and have made sure that you will have time to meet with your peers and our sponsors. This conference is an excellent opportunity for municipalities, government agencies, NGO’s, academics, and citizen scientists to learn, take part in discussions and to meet others who are knowledgeable and passionate about invasive plant management.
