I work with Contech Composites, Inc. a greenhouse mfg in Centralia who is designing a small greenhouse called “The Mobile Garden” specifically for apartment and condo dwellers. I’d love to exhibit, but unfortunately can’t this weekend. Can you get in touch with me and let me know if there will be other events like this? We would love to get involved.
