    When I was working on an air quality project in California we had Dan Mabe as one of our speakers. We were interested in the alternatives to the use of small off-road engines (SORE) in landscaping. Dan is an excellent speaker. His father had a landscaping business, Dan’s been building his knowledge since birth and is at the forefront of the transition that is underway. And Doug Tallamy is not to be missed. Looks like this will be an excellent program.
