Sustainable Landscapes IPM Working Group
The Sustainable Landscape IPM Working Group, formerly the Community IPM Working Group, has been active for many years addressing land care, water quality, and pesticide use issues in the Northeast. In 2011-2012, this group is refining the very challenging process of measuring change in attitudes and practices of the public, focusing on the adoption of a single lawn care practice: correct mowing height. New members will include a large lawn care company, a small lawn care company, and the Smithsonian Institution. Learn more about this group's plans for the coming year.
