Toward Harmony with Nature Conference

Dr. Curt Meine Keynote Speaker at Wild Ones Fox Valley 17th Annual Conference

The 17th Annual TOWARD HARMONY WITH NATURE Conference, a day-long seminar on native landscaping presented by Wild Ones Fox Valley. Keynote speaker Dr. Curt Meine, Senior Fellow at Wisconsin's Aldo Leopold Foundation will present “Restoring Native Ecosystems.” Dr. Meine is a distinguished conservation biologist, historian and author and was recently seen as the on-screen guide in the documentary film “Green Fire: Aldo Leopold and a Land Ethic for Our Time” will be held on Saturday, January 26, 2013 at the Oshkosh Convention Center in Oshkosh.

Dr. Meine’s presentation will point out that the need for restoration of our landscapes, watersheds, communities and ecosystems is now greater than ever, and he will invite us to draw upon Leopold’s legacy to carry it forward with new commitment and new understanding. An expert in ecological restoration, Dr. Meine’s books include “Aldo Leopold: His Life and Work” and “Correction Lines: Essays on Land, Leopold, and Conservation.”

This Wild Ones Fox Valley Area members invite the public to participate in the conference to not only Dr. Meine, but also seven other speakers on the whole spectrum of native plants and natural landscaping topics, as well as vendors and exhibitors and a silent auction. Of special interest will be the kick-off of the Wild for Monarchs Campaign being sponsored by the entire Wild Ones organization throughout the USA.
