General Information on Our Conferences |
Conferences are held throughout California and focus on
a landscape region or theme. Lectures by invited speakers,
receptions, and tours of private gardens, parks, nurseries,
and cultural landscapes are highlights of the conferences.
There are opportunities to visit archives, network with
professional colleagues, or meet in more casual settings at
the receptions, luncheons, and garden tours. |
