Almost Time for New England Grows!Source: New England Grows!

Are you ready for New England Grows!? The Northeast’s largest green industry exposition and educational conference, with the zesty tag line “One Show. A Million Ideas,” is just two days away.

New England Grows!, taking place Wednesday through Friday, Feb. 6 to 8, at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, attracts a record-breaking crowd of more than 15,000 professionals from every segment of the green industry.

Some new features this year include master classes, focused on advanced education for green industry professionals, a keynote session featuring Chris Zane and an Essentials of Plant I.D. seminar, “an innovative new learning experience” combining classroom instruction with a self-guided plant identification challenge on the tradeshow floor. In addition, this year’s show will offer a Jump Start Café, where attendees are invited to get to the city early, grab a cup of coffee and join colleagues for an informal idea exchange. Hot new ideas and trends by and for retail garden centers will also receive special recognition through a Retailers’ Choice Awards banquet.
