Sponsor the 2026 Eastern Washington Riparian Planting Symposium!

The 2026 Eastern Washington Riparian Planting Symposium is just around the corner—and we’re inviting you to be a part of it.

Since 2017, Populus: The Columbia Basin Riparian Planting Partnership has hosted this unique event that brings together restoration professionals, land managers, researchers, and practitioners from across Eastern Washington and the broader Pacific Northwest. Our annual gathering has grown into a trusted hub for sharing knowledge, exploring emerging science, and advancing best practices in riparian restoration.

Now drawing over 100 engaged attendees annually, the Symposium is more than a single event. In 2023, we expanded to offer year-round classes, workshops, and field trips, creating a continuous platform for learning, networking, and collaboration—which continues strong into 2025.
