ProGardenBiz Landscape & Garden Magazine for the Green Industry

Upcoming Events
Trade shows, seminars, and other events by professional organizations in the Green Industry are great places to learn more about your field and to keep your knowledge up-to-date with the latest techniques and equipment.
All year long maintenance gardeners and landscape contractors will be attending trade shows and expostions in ever increasing numbers. These are successful men and women, employers and employees who have discovered a way to get a jump on their competition or learn more about their chosen profession.
Why? Because landscape and garden trade shows are an excellent way to learn about new products and equipment innovations. They are also an excellent place to acquire the latest information regarding the specifications of fertilizers, amendments, herbicides, equipment, irrigation products, and more.
There are shows and seminars for the gardener, landscape contractor, nurseryman, irrigation specialist, grounds and lawn maintenance technician, and other specialists in the Green Industry.
Manufacturers, dealers, and suppliers are there ready and willing to talk to you about their products and services. If you have questions or comments about a product or landscape technique, a trade show is a good place to get those answers and to be heard.
These events are for the seasoned professional and for those just starting their own landscape or garden business.
Make plans to enhance your business by attending a trade show, seminar, or conference in your area.
