Nature has a way of keeping everything in balance, with our natural systems working together in harmony. The MELA 2012 Conference reflects the essence of this dialogue that starts with natural systems and ends with how we elect to manage and interact with land.
The 10th annual conference will explore Balance: Natural Systems and Built Environment. The one-day-event will be held Thursday, Feb. 23 at University Center of Lake County at The College of Lake County
Conference highlights include:
- Open and close the day with two nationally recognized speakers, Doug Reed and Richard Hayden. Read more about them at http://www.melaweb.org/conference.html
- Learn and share at sessions that raise the bar higher in terms of expertise in the area of sustainable education.
- Choose from topics that form a bridge between those who are already practicing sustainability and those that are launching their first efforts.
- Exchange ideas and experiences with professionals throughout the industry, from designers to contractors to growers and suppliers.
- A sustainable vendor fair will take place through lunch, and new this year is a book fair, with proceeds benefiting MELA.
