For those planning to attend GIE+EXPO this October, they will have the ability to attend two free Spanish-language seminars from the National Hispanic Landscape Alliance (NHLA).
Set for Oct. 22-24 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, Kentucky, GIE+EXPO is expected to see approximately 18,000 participants.
Because there is a growing number of Hispanics that work in the landscape industry, the NHLA wanted to take advantage of the learning opportunities at the tradeshow.
