JjHant Membership Drive! 



QUALITY GARDEN CENTERS 

 & GROWERS 



We are looking for a few good (new) members. 



WHO DO YOU KNOW? New garden centers, growers, florists, allied industry professionals, etc. The more 

 members we have in our organization, the more we can do for you and our industry. 



WHY JOIN? Here are just a few of the many reasons: 



TWILIGHT MEETINGS. A chance to visit horticultural operations around the state, talk with your 

 colleagues, and see how another business solves the same problems you have. 



SUMMER TRADE SHOW. Our big event! An opportunity to meet directly with your suppliers, 

 make new contacts, and enjoy a great barbecue. 



THE PLANTSMAN. The best horticultural association publication in the Northeast. Free with every 

 paid membership. Helps keep you up to date on our industry events, news, and legislation, along 

 with timely articles for better business management. 



CLOUT. The more members, the more clout we'll have on the political front in Concord. In 1999 

 we helped pass legislation that allows non-permanent structures (hoop houses) a tax-exempt status.
