Plus Seven By Tim Hodson

Have you been meaning to to nominate an individual for GPN’s 40 Under 40 Class of 2019, but just haven’t gotten around to it yet?

The original deadline for nominations was today — but we know how busy you are so we are extending the deadline for seven more days.

You now have until next Monday (01.28.19) to submit your nominations.

All of the members of GPN’s 40 Under 40 are nominated by their peers, so we are counting on you to tell us about the young men and women who are really making things happen in the the horticulture industry and in their personal lives.

We want to know more about those up-and-comers and what they are doing and why you think they belong in the Class of 2019.

Anyone in the horticulture industry under the age of 40 (as of 01.31.19) is eligible to be nominated. GPN’s 40 Under 40 represents all aspects of our industry — we are looking for growers, garden center retailers, breeders, researchers, marketers, academics and all of the other positions that make the horticulture industry so great. So please let us know who you think should be a member of our next class and why.

It’s a very simple process to nominate someone. Just go to www.gpnmag.com/40-under-40-nomination and complete the online form — that’s all there is to it!

If you know someone who was previously nominated but was not selected in prior years, they can be renominated for the Class of 2019 as long as they have not yet turned 40 yet.

We will introduce you to the Class of 2019 in the May issue of GPN!
