Green Industry Event BloomaPalooza Canceled
Due to poor weather conditions and low pre-registration numbers, the organizers of BloomaPalooza have canceled the event.
BloomaPalooza was being produced by GIE Media, Inc., C. Raker & Sons and Hort Couture.
“Our BloomaPalooza concept was created as an innovative opportunity to connect plant breeders to retailers in a one-of-a-kind business format, but business uncertainty – resulting from weather conditions that have delayed the retail season in many areas of the country – resulted in low pre-registration numbers” explains Jim Monroe from Hort Couture.
“To show our appreciation for those who supported and showed enthusiasm for this event, we are dedicating the BloomaPalooza dates, August 1-3, to independent garden center retailers, and will feature special hosting and programs for visitors to the Raker Trial Gardens on those days,” adds Gerry Raker of C. Raker & Sons.
In Bloomapalooza’s place, The Connection: A Rally of Independents will take place at Raker Trial Gardens in Litchfield, Mich., from August 1-3.
The Raker Trial Gardens are open July 17 until August 30.
