Sustainability Assistance Available for GrowersSource: The Visions Group

The Visions Group has developed a new program to assist ornamental plant producers in understanding, developing and implementing sustainable practices. In addition, this program facilitates the producers’ applications to attain certification under the VeriFlora “sustainably produced” standard.

“With this program, producers of ornamental plants now have a means to become sustainable and attain sustainability certification quickly with a minimum expenditure of resources. This service makes the process of applying for certification easier and less time consuming for company management,” said David Edenfield, president of Visions Group. This program is open to producers, handlers and retailers of any type of ornamentals. “Our group’s 90-plus years of experience in horticulture uniquely positions Visions to help growers take the mystery out of sustainability,” said Edenfield.

The Visions Group provides business management advice to the floriculture and nursery industries. For more information, send an e-mail to info@visionsgroupllc.com.
