SUMMARY:Lancaster County Conservancy Water Week
DESCRIPTION:Join the Lancaster County Conservancy and Octoraro Native Plant Nursery in celebration of clean water! \nLancaster County is blessed with 1\,500 stream miles\, but 47% of these streams are polluted and cannot support their original aquatic life. Waterways are at the core of Lancaster County. They drive economic opportunity and growth that benefits our local economy and agriculture. Our rivers and streams are the source of our drinking water and recreation to be enjoyed by all. To protect these waters\, we want to strengthen the sense of stewardship in Lancaster County.  Water connects us all! \nWater Week was conceived along the banks of the Conestoga River by friends Fritz Schroeder (Lancaster County Conservancy) and Spike Brant (Nimblist.) While kayaking along the river offers much beauty and solace\, it is also a front row seat to the amount of erosion\, pollution\, and disregard some have for this amazing fresh water resource. With this in mind they set out to create a campaign that CELEBRATES the unique waterways of Lancaster County\, EDUCATES the public about the challenges we face and opportunities we can create\, and ACTIVATES people to take action in their watersheds and communities. \n\nGo to the Water Week website for more information on the week’s events and celebrations.

We will be honoring newly awarded Life Members\, Professional Award winners\, PCH Emeritus Class\, along with companies who have shown allegiance to PLNA for over 40 years or more.  Also joining us will be the PLNA Foundation scholarship winners; the future of this industry. \nIn addition to the camaraderie of this recognition event\, PLNA will also be holding the Annual Membership Meeting where PLNA staff and board present what the association has been up to the last year and a sneak peek of future programs. \nNew to the program is an education element including keynote speakers and round-table discussions. We have three keynote speakers who will inform us of happenings within the industry at the national and state level. \n\nPennsylvania Department of Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding will provide an outlook on the state of agriculture in PA\,\nCraig Regelbrugge\, Senior Vice President of Advocacy and Industry Research will provide an update on AmericanHort’s efforts\, and\nSusan Yoder\, Executive Director of Seed Your Future\, will present the initiatives of this new national organization whose mission is to promote horticulture as a vital\, viable and exciting career path for the nation’s youth.\n\nWe will conclude the day with round table discussions moderated by business leaders and members on topics that are pressing in your day to day operations. \nIn addition to honoring outstanding individuals with the PLNA Professional awards\, we are also going to recognize new members\, long-time members\, new PCH’s\, and our newest honor\, PCH Emeritus recipients. \nCome for the MeetUp\, come for the Recognition Event or come to both!  This event is all about our members and we want to see you there! \nRegister online now for this social event that brings the PLNA membership together from all across the state. \nClick here to download a paper registration form. \nHotel Information: \nHampton Inn & Suites by Hilton – Hershey Near the Park \n195 Hershey Road\, Hummelstown\, PA  17036 \nPhone:  717.566.3369 \nMention you are with PA Landscape & Nursery Association for your discount!  Deadline: February 22\, 2017 \nGroup Discount: $109 + tax \nGreen Industry Professional Awards\nPLNA offers the following awards to recognize excellence both within the membership and with those outside of the membership who support PLNA’s mission. \nFredrick J.

Wells of Water Crest Farms\, West Grove. \nMember Recognition Awards \nPLNA appreciates its members and we want to reflect that through this new program.  The Association is only as good as its members\, and we are very fortunate to have companies who have shown their allegiance to PLNA through continued membership. \nThe new program recognizes members at various years of membership. Recognition is noted at 50 years and 40 years.  Special plaques will be presented for these long-time members.  And for those who have reached 30\, 20 and 10 years\, their dedication will be recognized through special certificates.  Each of these time frames are milestones and in addition to recognizing the length of the relationship with PLNA\, it really is also a celebration of how long these companies have been in business. \nWe will also be recognizing those companies who joined PLNA over the past year.  We are excited that we continue to add new companies to our member community. \nPCH Emeritus Awards \nThe Pennsylvania Certified Horticulturist (PCH) program (originally Pennsylvania Accredited Nurseryman (PAN)) was started in 1972\, over 40 years ago.  In recognition of the long time commitment by many early recipients\, the PLNA Board of Directors have created an Emeritus designation for this professional certification.  At 40 years of active participation\, PCH’s are automatically inducted into the Emeritus Class.  After 25 years of active participation a PCH can elect to join the Emeritus Member status.  For 2017 we have two new members in the Emeritus Class and are honoring 17 PCH’s who have elected the Emeritus Member status.  Join PLNA in honoring these professionals who have maintained this individual certification throughout their career. \nLife Members \nPLNA recognizes individuals from within the membership whose special contributions to PLNA make them worthy of a lifetime membership.  These individuals must be nominated by an active member in good standing and then reviewed by the Board of Directors.  This year the PLNA Board has awarded four lifetime memberships: \nJoanne Kostecky-Petito\,formerly of Joanne Kostecky Garden Design\, Allentown. \nAnnual Membership Meeting \nIn addition to the recognition ceremonies\, PLNA will hold its Annual Meeting of the Members.  During this portion of the program\, the staff and Board will present what the association has been up to the last year and a sneak peek of future programs.  The membership will also be reviewing some changes in the PLNA bylaws as it relates to members with more than one business location and the retired member status.

SUMMARY:Ithaca Native Landscape Symposium (INLS)
DESCRIPTION:The Ithaca Native Landscape Symposium is based on a simple idea: the use of native plants should remain an integral part of sustainable landscapes. We see many fields adapting rapidly to goals of sustainability\, but horticulture in Central NY has been slow to embrace native plants\, which have been standard landscape tools in many other parts of the country for decades. In Central NY\, quality information on native plants remains elusive\, with marketing standing in for ecology or substance.​\n​
