Early bird Congress conference pricing ends Dec 13
Landscape Ontario Congress is my favourite event of the year. It is the largest gathering of landscape professionals in the country with more than 15,000 visitors and 600 exhibitors. Congress is also a great place to find inspiration and to learn, and its fantastic conference lineup is geared specifically for business owners and landscape and horticulture professionals. Register by Dec. 13 to get early bird conference pricing. I Hope to see you at Warm Up Monday events on Jan. 6, and during the show, Jan. 7-9 at the Toronto Congress Centre!
