Turfgrass Field Day: Golf

In collaboration with Minnesota Golf Course Superintendents Association

By Eric Watkins

Hole Notes, a publication by the Minnesota Golf Course Superintendents Association (MGCSA), recently featured our team in several articles.  Graduate students James Wolfin and Hannah Ramer wrote an in-depth article on University of Minnesota research on bee lawns titled Redesign Your Rough (and driving range): Implementing Conservation Practices in Low-Use Areas to Support Pollinators. There is also a great photo spread on the Turf and Grounds Field Day held on August 9, 2018 with the Minnesota Turf and Grounds Foundation.

The Turf and Grounds Field Day is back for 2018 as we partner again with the Minnesota Turf and Grounds Foundation to produce this popular event. Please mark Thursday, August 9, 2018 on your calendar. We will provide more information on the field day agenda closer to the event date. If you have any questions, please contact Sam Bauer at [email protected].  We look forward to seeing you there!
