No one reading this article needs the importance of strong, healthy roots explained to them. A plant is only as healthy as the root system that supports it.
The Canadian greenhouse industry is somewhat unique in that its roots can be found in generations of family-owned businesses. Stories of immigration and small beginnings are common. Those strong roots allow today’s growers, building on the success of previous generations, to evolve and satisfy the demands of a changing world. The Canadian Greenhouse Conference is proud to play a part in this successful evolution as, for almost 40 years, it has provided the greenhouse industry a forum for connections, discussion and education – roots.
The conference’s casual, friendly atmosphere allows growers to build a network of resources with internationally renowned speakers, researchers, retailers and allied trades. The comprehensive speakers program has been expanded and encompasses issues facing flower, vegetable, strawberry and cannabis growers as well as garden centres, nurseries and landscapers. Complete program information is on the website www.CanadianGreenhouseConference.com
The pre-conference bus tour takes place October 3rd offering a unique opportunity to tour some of Canada’s most progressive growing operations. The tour is very popular and sells out quickly. Register early to avoid disappointment.
Plan now to attend the 2017 Canadian Greenhouse Conference. Grow your business and your network; time invested at the conference will pay dividends throughout the year. Complete details and contact information can be found at www.CanadianGreenhouseConference.com
