Every year Landscape Ontario benefits from amazing contributions through the volunteer efforts of members, who serve their association throughout the year in a wide variety of duties.

Sitting on various committees, LO members help to decide the future of the profession and the association, or helping to plan, organize and run many special events. Landscape Ontario’s world-class events, education and programs are the direct result of the thousands of volunteer hours that help to keep the association strong and valuable. Members who have freely offered their time, energy and expertise are listed below:
