Twilight Meeting August 5 at Pierson Nurseries


By Jake Pierson, MELNA VP


MELNA’s Summer Twilight Meeting will be held at Pierson Nurseries at 291 Waterhouse Road, Dayton, Maine 04005 on August 5th starting at 3 pm. We will have a business meeting around 4:45- 5ish and then we will offer a cook out dinner with the opportunity to win some door prizes. We’ve decided to change the format slightly.


Tere will be a couple of short seminars discussing plant care, proper planting techniques, and other helpful tips. We’re also working on securing a presentation for pesticide credit. Te other big


change will be a small gathering of vendors for you to visit while attending the meeting. Tey will be a varied group of allied industries and products from stone, lighting, sod, bark and others. Tey will be in attendance for the entire meeting. Of course we’ll have tours going of our facility and our staff will be on hand to answer any questions you may have. You’ll have an opportunity to see our brand new production facility as well as our production space expansions. We look forward to seeing you on August 5th!
