Our Best Resources for Green Industry Professionals

The Kentucky Landscape Industries Winter Meeting included presentations ranging from greenhouse production to landscape maintenance.  Many attendees had questions concerning sub-topics that I was not able to adequately cover during my time slots.  Furthermore, I referred to fungicide guides and other publications during my talks, but was not able to access them online for audiences.  Links are posted below.
