Special Invitation: Hydroponics Workshop Featuring Guest Speaker Dr. Lynette Morgan

Drum roll please! We’re excited to announce that we will be holding the first hydroponics workshop at our state-of-the-art Technology Center on Wednesday, February 8, 2012. This day-long event will be hosted by our greenhouse manager, Sam Shroyer, and features a special Q & A session with Dr. Lynette Morgan via audio conference.

Dr. Morgan holds an impressive list of accomplishments in the field of hydroponics and is a partner at SUNTEC International Hydroponics Consultants, where she provides technical advice to hydroponic growers across the world. She has also written an extensive line of hydroponic guides – autographed copies will be available for sale at the workshop!

During this workshop, attendees will engage in a presentation created by Dr. Morgan, tour our high-tech hydroponics facilities and get hands-on advice from Sam, and have the opportunity to pick Dr. Morgan’s brain during the Q & A.
