Join us for the 2025 ANPC Annual Workshop on May 24th in Red Deer, Alberta! Some of this year's workshop "Plants through Time" will highlight how plants, habitats, conservation and people's knowledge have evolved through time, from decades to thousands of years.

Our Keynote Speaker will be Jenny L. McCune with the University of Lethbridge (http://jlmccune.weebly.com/) speaking on Plants through Time: From the Distant Past to the Invisible Present. She will be discussing her experiences studying plant communities, highlighting the challenges and intrigue involved in understanding the short-term and long-term history of plants, and discuss these challenges to plant conservation in Canada.

A full speaker's list with associated topics will be released shortly. We are also planning a banquet dinner after the workshop and a short field trip the morning after the workshop. Find more information and register on our website: https://anpc.ab.ca/?p=11502
