Join us in Ohio for the 28th annual Central States Forest Soils Conference!
The theme for this year’s conference is ‘Change’. Join us and explore the impact emerald ash borer will have
on Ohio’s forests and managment strategies to minimize that impact. Learn how forests and forest soils ‘change’ as the landscape is converted from an old growth forest to a second growth forest, to an agriculture field. And finally, explore the changes that occur to soils in the urban environment, and how urban soils and other urban environmental factors influence the survival, growth and performance of urban trees and forests.
