The MGIA Annual Trade Show & Convention is a highly anticipated event that draws attendees from all over Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Canada. This gathering has become one of the most significant industry occasions, thanks to its focus on the latest products and services provided by hundreds of exhibitors. Over the course of two days, visitors can explore a comprehensive showcase of innovations in landscaping, tree care, irrigation systems, lawn maintenance, and hardscaping.

One of the unique aspects of the event is its educational offerings. The convention features an extensive two-day program tailored to professionals in the green industry, including landscape designers, arborists, irrigation specialists, and lawn care experts. The educational seminars are designed not only to introduce new tools and techniques but also to provide valuable insights into improving business practices and fostering industry growth. Keynote sessions are led by industry leaders such as Dr. John Ball, a professor of forestry and an expert in forest health from South Dakota State University. His seminars, funded by grants, focus on enhancing the knowledge of foresters, tree climbers, and ground crews, offering practical advice on sustainable practices, safety, and the future of arboriculture.

The exhibition floor is equally impressive, with a wide range of products and equipment designed for both professionals and businesses in the green sector. Attendees can find cutting-edge lawn and landscape machinery, including high-performance equipment, snow removal tools, trucks, and specialized irrigation systems. There are also displays from nurseries, chemical suppliers, lighting and water management companies, and other service providers that cater to the needs of the landscaping and tree care industries. 

The event is more than just an exhibition; it serves as a hub for networking and learning, offering invaluable opportunities for professionals to exchange ideas, explore new business opportunities, and discover solutions to the challenges they face in their day-to-day operations. Whether it’s finding the latest in landscaping technology or learning from top experts in the field, the MGIA Annual Trade Show & Convention is an essential event for anyone in the green industry.
