Plantpeddler announces first 'Iowa Horticulture Week'

Horticulture contributes significantly to Iowa’s economy through diverse sectors, such as fruit and vegetable production, arboriculture, floriculture, landscaping, nursery and greenhouse operations, flowers, farmer’s markets, turf grass production and agritourism.

The proclamation boasts Iowa’s many connections to horticulture through educational institutions, clubs and programs, habitats, fresh and nutritional foods, beautification of public and private landscapes, recreational activity and enhancement to the quality of life.

The social media hashtag for the week is #IowaHortWeek.
