This year’s meeting will encourage people to work together towards healthy ecosystems and biodiversity in a changing climate. It will provide an opportunity to explore strategies, programs, partnerships, knowledge and research that shape and build resilient management of Invasive Phragmites.

This event will be offered in conjunction with our Annual Ontario Invasive Plant Council Conference which will take place virtually on January 18th, 2023. Together, this unique two-day event brings together professionals and passionate citizens across Ontario and beyond.
