The Fall Event
2016 Join Us!
of Garden Retailing
The Fall Event is the perfect forum for progressive garden retailers, consultants and vendors to network,
exchange ideas, collaborate and create new synergies to fuel success. No matter how long you’ve been in
retail or what position you hold at your company, chances are there’s still something you need to learn. There
are countless reasons why you should attend The Fall Event, but we’ve managed to narrow it down to five:

Network with your peers. We know you’ve heard it all before, but networking is a huge part of your
success. Meeting face-to-face with your peers provides an opportunity to collaborate, hear new ideas,
and tap into a wealth of knowledge. You can find a mentor – or become one, and develop relationships
that can last a lifetime.
Meet with our Service Providers. Our Service Providers are industry experts and solution-providers
who truly know what is happening in the world of garden center retailing - and they have answers
to your questions. Participate in the PROsessions for a chance to discuss your biggest challenges,
explore new ideas, and learn what’s working for others.
Hear from our Guest Speakers. Our speakers are professionals from multiple industries with proven
business success that will introduce you to new concepts and open your mind to new ways of thinking
about how you do business every day.
Meet with our Sponsors. Our sponsors are premier industry suppliers of the products and services you
need to run a successful garden center. Invest some time in visiting with them during breaks. See their
newest products and spend some one-on-one time discovering what’s new and developing profitable
business partnerships.
Relax and have fun. The Fall Event is a lot of learning packed into a short amount of time so we always
make time for some fun! You’ll go home re-energized and ready to apply all that you’ve learned to make
your center more successful!

There’s simply no substitute for face-to-face interaction and The Fall Event provides the perfect opportunity for you to
meet other like-minded independent garden retailers – to share, create and multiply the capabilities beyond that of any
one individual garden center. Come meet other garden center owners and managers, talk with our Service Providers
and see the newest products from our Partners for Success and Sponsors. Workshops and seminars conducted by
professionals from all facets of business are short on theory and long on ideas that you can put right to work!
