Keeping up to date with pesticide recertification is a fact of life for greenhouse growers. A total of 12 hours of presentations (credits will vary by state) will be offered for the six New England states plus New York.

Do check the schedule on the program brochure, as some of the presentations are held concurrently. Licensed pesticide applicators will be able to earn up to four credit-hours on the first day, and up to three credit-hours on the second day of the conference.
