2022 Conference Instructions and Reminders

Thank you to all those who registered for the 2022 Connecticut Land Conservation Conference Gather on the Land: Conversations Among Generations. We have listed some helpful information and reminders for the conference events.

If you have any questions, please contact Cristina at chayden@ctconservation.org.

For Those Registered for the Plenary Session.

  • The plenary is scheduled for Saturday, May 14 at Peoples State Forest in Barkhamsted.
  • Registration check-in will begin at 8:30am with welcoming remarks to start at 9:00am.
  • The agenda for the plenary can be found online here.
  • Lunch will be provided for registered attendees. There will also be breakfast pastries, coffee, and water.
  • To try to mitigate the use of plastic, we will not be offering plastic water bottles at the event. We will provide water coolers. Please bring your own refillable water bottles.
  • After the discussions, we’ll have time to enjoy being outside at Peoples State Forest. Join us for a guided hike on one of the trails or an afternoon yoga session. Don’t forget comfortable walking shoes or a yoga mat!

Virtual Roundtables
