A successful Expo...

The thousands of people who attended this past weekend's 15th-annual Garden Expo in the Exhibition Hall at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison found a warm and inviting respite from the bitter cold temperatures outside. The central-garden display, thanks to the Wisconsin Landscape Contractors Association (WLCA), created a unique oasis and a showcase for the latest trends in landscaping.

Expo-goers received helpful hints, learned about new lawn, garden and landscaping technology and purchased new supplies from exhibitors, vendors, lecturers and educators. Volunteers from around the state contributed to the event's success. Many thanks to everyone involved!

To get a feel for a bit of the event's scope, Be more Tuned In captured a brisk tour through the event floor. If you were there, see if you can find yourself. If you weren't there, see a small bit of what you missed!



Mark your calendars now for next year's Garden Expo on Feb. 13, 14 and 15, 2009.

Garden Expo is presented by Wisconsin Public Television and the UW-Extension/Cooperative Extension Horticulture Team.

Garden Expo is generously supported by Blain's Farm & Fleet, Green Power Tomorrow from MGE, Wisconsin Landscape Contractors Association and Zimbrick Volkswagen.
