Explore the forests that sustain us, and discover how we can help them thrive.
Join us for Rooted in Place: The Living Forest, an engaging day of conversation, learning, and exploration focused on the remarkable ecological, cultural, and community connections that make forests essential to our lives.
From carbon storage and climate resilience to tree health, forest management and the remarkable relationships between species, this symposium brings together ecologists, foresters, educators, and land stewards to explore what makes a forest a living, interconnected system and how we can become better stewards of it.
Whether you manage woodland, care for trees in your yard, work in conservation or simply love the forest, there will be something to discover.
