The IGCA was organized in 1968 at a joint Conference in Oxford, England of the Horticultural Trade Association and the British Group of Garden Centres. The annual congress often sees over 200 delegates from up to 20 different countries, and includes a study tour with a strong learning focus for emerging professionals, according to the IGCA.
