  1. Oh, I wish, I wish these will be posted on You tube or available via zoom on-line.
    I am in the Stayner area and I’d really like to see this presentation. Thanks, Eric

      Hi Eric,
      We plan on hosting IPM scout training workshops in early May that will be offered in person (in Guelph and Ridgetown) as well as online. While they will not be the the exact same material, there will be overlap. Registration for the IPM workshops in May will be posted here soon.
      Travis
