News Landscaping
Free webinar to discuss landscaping in Canada amid COVID-19 pandemic

Turf & Rec, with the sponsorship of Plant Products, will present a free webinar on Tuesday, May 5, entitled Landscaping & COVID-19.

Professional landscapers and lawn care operators in Canada are facing a challenging season this year amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The definition of “essential services” varies from one area to another, and many companies are limited to what they are able to offer their customers. Additionally, a suffering economy is taking its toll on what many customers can afford.

Landscaping professionals from across Canada will discuss how the health crisis is affecting the industry, and will present strategies for businesses to remain viable and ways to keep employees safe.

The webinar begins at 2 p.m. EST.
