If you live anywhere in BC or most parts of western Canada for that matter, you could be asking yourself what is this concept of global warming all about?
The weather is a big factor when it comes to growing grass and it often dictates how busy we all are. The last couple months have been decent in western Canada for the most part, and I hope your turf has responded accordingly. I have had a few chances to check out some turf this summer and I was impressed with what I saw.
Season’s Greetings! As my term of President began this past January, the year was already starting off as a very difficult one for our association. Major challenges we were and are still dealing with include attracting new members, adding value to WCTA membership, putting on a worthwhile and financially viable trade show, strengthening allied partnerships and exploring new avenues of revenue generation just to name a few.
As I look outside my office window it is just another grey day with the rain falling and high winds in the forecast……… the fall/winter blues have already hit the west coast of BC while everybody east is bracing for old man-winter or has been hit already.
