Penn State Turf and Ornamentals Field Day is our chance to show you the results of turfgrass research designed for golf course superintendents, sports turf managers, and lawn care operators; and provide tours and hands-on demonstrations for landscapers, nursery operators, and others interested in ornamental horticulture.
Turf and Ornamentals Field Day begins with a Core Pesticide Education Program, followed by morning breakout sessions. In the afternoon, attendees can participate in Lawn and Sport Turf or Golf Turf tracks at the Joseph Valentine Turfgrass Research Center, or three breakout sessions dealing with weeds and other pests, plant disease, perennials, and tours of the Arboretum, Soils Lab, Pollinator and Bird Garden, and a virtual tour of landscape design.
Pesticide Credits & Education Points
Core and Category pesticide credits have been approved from the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture. Education Points have been approved from the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA). See the Agenda for each applicable session's credit information.
