“Having this year’s AAS Summer Summit at the variety trials at Young’s Plant Farm is a brilliant pairing of two organizations that know the crucial role trialing plays in the success of our industry. Please join us for this opportunity not only to visit Young’s trials, but to connect with AAS and NGB to see how they support you and your business,” says AAS President Alicain Carlson of Syngenta Flowers.

The event begins with a Welcome Reception on Tuesday, June 4. Wednesday, June 5 will be a tour day visiting several sites on the Auburn University Campus, Young’s Plant Farm, and Bonnie Plants, and ending with a tour and dinner at Botanic garden center.

Attendees are encouraged to extend their stay and visit other AAS Trials participating in the Southern Garden Tour, such as University of Georgia in Athens, GA, and Metrolina Greenhouses.

This event is open to anyone (growers, breeders, retailers, brokers, industry reps, educators, media, garden communicators, etc.) interested in these organizations, the trials, and other local sites.
