Dr. Charlie Hall of Texas A&M University will deliver the keynote address, focusing on what's really bogging down the economy and what 2012 and beyond has in store for the green industry.
Other notable speakers include Harlan Hamernik (Bluebird Nursery), Ed Snodgrass (Emory Knoll Farms), Wolfgang Eberts (Baumschule Eberts, Germany) and Lloyd Traven (Peace Tree Farm).
