HortEast, Atlantic Canada’s premier horticulture trade show and conference, was held at the Moncton Coliseum Complex, November 21-23, 2011.
According to show organizers, the Canadian Nursery & Landscape Association (www.cnla.ca) there were lots of new offerings at the 2011event, including six "mix and match" pre-show workshops as well as a demo area on the trade show floor, which included free hands on demonstrations for staff and owners, including plant layout competitions, tree grafting, arborist climbing, etc. The trade show featured 100 booths.
In addition to its trade show and demonstrations, HortEast features a range of sessions and workshops led by experts from across Canada on topics ranging from the business of landscaping to tips on designing water features and sustainable practices, with continuing education credits available.
The CNLA says this show provides lots of networking opportunities over the course of the three days. HortEast is Atlantic Canada’s trade show and conference for members of the landscape, nursery, greenhouse grower, and retail garden centre industry. Visit www.horteast.ns.ca for more information.
