Dear Landscaping Industry Folks,

Could you please share this invitation to any of your colleagues and workers who speak Spanish? We are offering our second annual conference for Spanish-speakers on the morning of Friday, March 8, 2024 at the Fairfax County Government Center. The conference is free and in person and includes lunch.

Topics include

• Why native plants make good business
• Identification and control of invasive plants
• Safety
• Tree pruning
• Special guest: Alonso Abugattas – the “Capital Naturalist” – will give a talk on wildlife encounters in the garden

Registration is required by March 7.     PlantNovaTrees.org/clase-en-espanol

We hope all this will be useful to Spanish-speaking members of the lawn and landscape community as demand increases for sustainable landscaping services. Please also see the material in Spanish on our website: PlantNovaNatives.org/espanol.

Co-sponsored by Fairfax County Park Authority, Northern Virginia Soil and Water Conservation District, Audubon-at-Home, and Plant NOVA Natives.

Sincerely,

Margaret Fisher
Plant NOVA Natives/Plant NOVA Trees Outreach Coordinator
