The Sustainable Plant Research and Outreach Center (SPROut) will present “Soak It Up: Phytotechnology Solutions for Water Challenges,” a three-day conference, from March 30-April 1 at the Oregon Garden Resort in Silverton, Ore. This year’s conference will focus on plant-based solutions for stormwater and wastewater challenges. Keynote speakers will include Gerould Wilhelm of Conservation Design Forum Inc., Dave Maciorek of Living Machines / Worrell Water Technologies, Eli Cohen of Ayala Water and Ecology, and Paul Stamets of Fungi Perfecti LLC. Additional presentations on April 1 will include “Urban Applications for Ecological Horticulture: Rain Gardens 101,” Green Roof Design 101: An Introductory Course by Green Roofs for Healthy Cities,” and a tour of local constructed water treatment wetlands.
