“You will feel safe and comfortable the entire time. It’s a global experience – which I personally value greatly. The education that comes from the other travelers – owners, buyers and key people in successful garden centers – who have shared with me their unique strategies in successful buying, marketing, accounting, human resources and so much more has been valuable.”
Julie DiFeo, Owner Gale's Westlake Garden Center
“It is definitely worth the extra time and effort. We work hard on the trips, but they also offer a cultural experience that you don’t get with your typical buying methods!”
David Olson, Senior Buyer, Seasonal & Holiday Gift Bachman's Floral, Gift & Garden, Customer Since 2014
“The trips are very interesting to see other cultures, and to enjoy the camaraderie and information sharing with colleagues.”
Mary Whitcomb, Product Line Manager Mahoney’s Garden Center
