BOSTON — New England Grows is scheduled for Feb. 6-8, 2013 at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center. Mark your calendars and register before mid-January to save.
New England Grows is an educational partnership among the New England Nursery Association, Massachusetts Arborists Association, Massachusetts Association of Landscape Professionals, Massachusetts Nursery & Landscape Association, and its network includes more than 40 allied Green Industry organizations.
With a theme of “Frontline thinking. Intelligent solutions,” more than 30 innovative educational seminars planned and exhibit booth sales are already exceeding expectations. The speaker lineup features well-known experts and other trendsetting presenters, including Bruce Allison, Kirk Armstrong, Kip Creel, Richard Hawke, Dan Heims, Michael Raupp and Cass Turnbull. They will address a variety of timely commercial horticultural topics like permaculture, the impact of global climate change on plants and pests, water management, small space garden design, mature tree care, and biological controls as well as important business-growth ideas such as digital marketing and lead conversion, selling in the “new economy” and data mining.
“New England Grows is produced by the industry, for the industry,” says New England Grows President Mary Hallene, of Sylvan Nursery in Westport, MA. “It is the place where the commercial horticulture industry gathers to learn what’s new, to share information, and to make connections. I urge everyone to be a part of it in 2013.”
At New England Grows, Green Industry professionals can obtain most of their professional Continuing Education (CEU) credits under one roof with recertification opportunities for Pesticide Licenses, NOFA, APLD, LA CES, ISA, CTSP, and most state association credentials.
