How green is your garden? A new carbon cost calculator developed with help from University of Guelph researchers is intended to help homeowners and landscapers track carbon sequestration and emissions from lawn and garden maintenance.
The turgrass research funding year begins with our annual conference and trade show. Prior to COVID, these three days would yield about a third of our annual fundraising through the Silent Auction, 50/50 draw and by the efforts of the Kwantlen Turf Club. In the past, any contributions from allied organizations were presented at the show.
Working with many of our allied groups, one of the primary mandates of the Western Canada Turfgrass Association is to foster turfgrass research for the betterment of the entire sports turf and golf course management industry.
From sports and recreational fields to home lawns, a new turfgrass centre opening this week at the University of Guelph will foster research and teaching to support Canada’s multi-billion-dollar sports, golf and residential turf industry.
