The organizing committee sincerely hopes that all who came to the 13th NAAC had a great time! Below are a couple of articles and pictures of the conference. Although the conference itself had great participation and many interesting oral presentations and posters, most registrants will have fond memories of the Kitchen Party - the excellent music of Cynthia MacLeod (fiddle) and Jon Matthews (guitar), the lobster dinner and a chance to relax with new-found friends after an excellent and informative Field Tour.

Some registrants said that, although they knew where Prince Edward Island was on the map, they had no idea of the beauty and character of Canada’s smallest province. But all went home, having added the word “PEI” to their vocabularies. Stay tuned for information concerning the venue for the 14th NAAC in 2015.

Authors at the conference who deemed their agroforestry research to be publishable were invited to submit manuscripts for a Special Issue of the journal Agroforestry Systems. The development of this Special Issue is still underway, but it is expected to be finalized in the first half of 2014.
