The Garden Centers of America (GCA) Summer Tour will hit four major cities in Ohio this June, highlighting the best practices of garden centers in the area. The guided bus tour starts in Cleveland June 23 and will include stops at Cleveland, Dayton, Cincinnati and Columbus stores.
“Ohio is right in the middle of what I call the ‘Garden Center Belt,’ which stretches from the Upper Midwest to New England,” said GCA Chairman Jeff Morey in a news release about the event. “It offers some of the best examples of independent garden centers at their finest in the United States.”
The tour, which will include a reception in Cleveland Sunday night and dinner in Amish country Monday, is not exclusive to GCA members. Monday’s tour will focus on Cleveland garden centers, Tuesday’s trip will feature stores in Dayton and Cincinnati and the tour will end in Columbus Wednesday afternoon.
More tour information will be available soon. To register and check for updates, visit GCA’s website.
