Presented by SPROut (Sustainable Plant Research & Outreach Center)

Phytotechnology is the strategic use of plants to provide ecosystem services and solve environmental challenges in managed landscapes. This year’s conference will focus on plant-based solutions for both stormwater and wastewater challenges. This topic is of critical and growing importance to the way we manage and protect our water resources locally, regionally, and globally. Our keynote speakers are all world experts in water and ecology. The rest of our speaker line-up is just as exciting, covering everything from research to practical application.
