CAST 2025 registration closes on March 17
National Garden Bureau (NGB) reminds everyone to register now for California Spring Trials (CAST) 2025. All participants are required to register for the event, which takes place March 25-29 at various locations throughout California.
Registration will close on March 17.
Why attend? Brian Weesies, general manager, Mast Young Plants, said, “CAST plays a valuable role in Mast Young Plants’ new variety selection process each year. We begin evaluating potential new varieties by growing them in our Michigan greenhouses, and our visit to CAST allows us to continue evaluating varieties at breeders’ facilities in California. CAST also provides the opportunity for us to speak directly with plant breeders, connect with colleagues across the industry, and learn about upcoming industry trends. These valuable experiences at CAST play an important role in the varieties that MYP decides to offer to our customers for the upcoming season.”
The National Garden Bureau has implemented a new, user-friendly registration system to enhance the CAST experience. Attendees can now register at caspringtrials.us, where they will find clear instructions on creating their personalized schedules. This system allows for efficient group registration, enabling one person to register up to 10 traveling companions on their behalf.
