"Texas is so large and spread out, and our industry can so spread out, it's hard to get to meet with people in person throughout the year. For me, I love EXPO because it's the only place that we get to meet with vendors all the way through to your end customer in one place, under one roof, at our booths. It's such a great environment, it's the only true networking event there is," said Jonathan Saperstein, Chief Operating Officer of Tree Town USA.

"The speakers are always great, and different parts of our company go to different parts of the education; our growers go the growers topics and management will go see different presentations on management. But my favorite event is the Welcome Party, and I'd like to invite everyone to join us." (Tree Town USA sponsors the Welcome Party).
"The reason why we sponsor and have so many booths is because this is our industry, and we wanted to get back involved and support it. When you think about all the different services or production lines that TNLA represents, from a company with a lawnmower and two crews to annual suppliers to fertilizer manufacturers and soil producers, we are all weak individually but with TNLA representing us to fight for our interests and be a conduit of communication, we are not so fragmented-- we are stronger. Some organizations and shows related to the nursery industry haven't made it over the years; without the support of memberships and sponsorships, nothing can be successful. There are too many benefits to not sponsor."
Meet Jonathan and his team at the Welcome Party or at Tree Town's booth, #3000.
