Martha Stewart's March 2 blog included kudos for the 2010 New England Grows trade show. Here's what she wrote:

An Exciting Conference in Boston
Last month, my gardener, Shaun Kass, attended the New England Grows 2010, one of the biggest and most respected horticultural and green industry events in North America.  This outstanding trade exposition, held at the convention center in Boston, Massachusetts, is known for its fantastic diversity and for its enlightening speakers.  For the three days of this expo, one can wander around the 1400 vendor booths, displaying the latest in plant material, products, equipment, and services for the green industry.  The educational sessions are conducted by world-renowned speakers, who present the latest research, trends, and predictions for the horticultural field.   Shaun had a wonderful time at New England Grows and is looking forward to attending next year's event.  Enjoy his photos!
