Do You Know a Hero? By Tim Hodson

Do you know someone in the horticulture business who is always looking out for the industry to make it better?

Is this person like Ken Altman or the late Jack Williams and is truly making a lasting impression and a real difference in and on our industry?

If you do then we want to know about him or her because we are looking for GPN’s 2012 Hort Hero.

The Hort Hero is someone who is helping advance the industry and making it better for everyone.

If you know someone who you think should be this year’s Hort Hero, then drop me a line at thodson@greatamericanpublish.com and let me know why that person deserves to be recognized.

We will announce this year’s Hero at OFA Short Course in July and be featuring this person in the September issue of GPN.

Tune In to Hort TV

Have you had a chance to check out Hort TV yet this month?

Be sure to tune in this month to see some of our highlights from 2012 California Spring Trials.

Also, be sure to click on the educational videos that were filmed on-site at many of the breeder locations.
