Call for Presentations for the ELA Annual Conference, to be held in Providence, Rhode Island, USA February 4 and 5, 2026. Please feel free to share this announcement with your networks.

ELA invites researchers, practitioners, and experts in ecological horticulture, resilient land management, and sustainable land planning to submit proposals for presentations, workshops, and panel discussions that align with the theme of Navigating Uncertainty. The ELA Annual Conference brings together leaders in ecological landscape practices with multi-disciplinary professionals involved in land care: landscape architects, designers, growers, horticulturists, land stewards, arborists, and installation/maintenance technicians. We also welcome students, educators, native plant enthusiasts, community activists, and home gardeners. The event will feature a two-day, multi-track program with opportunities to network, learn, and share new insights and strategies that contribute to sustainable and regenerative landscape management.

Please consider submitting a proposal or sharing with groups you think might have interest!
