As the year winds down we’re looking forward to reconnecting with many of you at our different winter green industry events. These gatherings are some of our favorite opportunities to engage with the broader green industry community. We’d love to connect & talk trees!
Where You’ll Find Us
January 27-28, 2026 in Bloomington, IL
InVigorateU is one of our favorite ways to kick off the new season. This annual education conference hosted by Landscape Illinois brings together nursery and greenhouse professionals, landscape contractors, and garden center folks for two days of learning, networking, and collaboration. The emphasis is on plants, but the sessions span everything from native oaks to pest management to the business side of growing. We’ll be there as exhibitors, and we’re looking forward to the industry round tables, the keynote sessions, and of course, the plant trivia night at Lil Beaver Brewery! If you’re attending, stop by our booth to talk trees and catch up.
February 25-27, 2026 in Schaumburg, IL
The 13th annual iLandscape show is the Midwest’s premier tradeshow for the green industry, drawing nearly 7,000 landscape professionals from Illinois, Wisconsin, and beyond. With over 450 exhibitors and 50+ educational sessions, it’s three days packed with new products, best practices, and meaningful connections. Whether you’re a landscape contractor, grower, designer, or equipment dealer, there’s something here for you. Come find us on the show floor!
Maggie will be joining a panel discussion on Wednesday, February 25 from 1:00–2:00 pm titled “What’s Trending: An Update on Plants and Landscape Design.” Alongside Ashley Buzan and Greg Stack, she’ll be exploring what homeowners, landscapers, and designers are currently seeking, and who’s buying what. From emerging trends to classic styles making a comeback, this conversation will dig into how tastes in plants and garden design continue to evolve. If you’re at the show, join us bright and early on Wednesday morning!
We value these events because they give us a chance to learn from others in the field, hear about new research and best practices, and stay connected to the people and ideas that push our industry forward. Every conversation we have at these shows, whether it’s about tree selection, growing techniques, or the challenges we’re all navigating, helps us grow and better serve our customers. We come to listen as much as we come to share!
