PLANET TAKES TO THE ROAD
— PLANET exhibits at Texas Nursery/Landscape EXPO —

HERNDON, Va., September 5, 2008 — One of the Professional Landcare Network’s (PLANET’s) strategic goals is to advance its marketplace recognition, and it did just that by recently exhibiting at the Texas Nursery & Landscape Association’s 2008 Nursery/Landscape EXPO in Houston, Texas.

PLANET members and staff were on hand in the PLANET booth to meet and greet hundreds of trade show visitors and introduce them to the benefits of PLANET membership. Takeaway resources, which gave a more in-depth look into PLANET’s extensive portfolio of green industry-specific periodicals, events, educational products, consulting services, certification program, and safety initiatives, were available to booth visitors.

PLANET is taking its message to more green industry trade shows as well as to town hall meetings across the country in the coming months. Trade shows include:

Nursery/Landscape EXPO, August 14–17, 2008, Houston, TX
Ohio Turfgrass Conference & Show, December 8–11, 2008, Columbus, OH
Minnesota Green Expo, January 7– 9, 2009, Minneapolis, MN
ProGreen EXPO 2009, January 14–16, 2009, Denver, CO
New England Grows, February 4–6, 2009, Boston, MA
Landscape Industry Show, February 25–26, 2009, Los Angeles, CA

Growing PLANET will not only help green industry companies to be more prosperous but will also strengthen the entire industry.
