Petitti Family of Farms exhibits at Cultivate’22

Last year’s Cultivate’22 show was the nursery industry debut of our recently combined Petitti Family of Farms (Willowbend-Ridge Manor-Losely Nurseries) team.

Our team had a successful week of professional networking and exhibiting at this year’s Cultivate’22 event, held annually in Columbus, Ohio, at the Greater Columbus Convention Center. Cultivate is the leading annual convention for the entire North American Green Industry sector.

This year’s show represented the first time that all three nursery operations exhibited under the combined Petitti Family of Farms brand. Many customers, both long-established and potential, visited the large 20ft. x 40ft. booth to discuss how the Petitti Family of Farms team can bring greater shipping and plant sourcing efficiencies to their green industry operations.

The booth itself was notable for the impressive display of diverse plant material – personally curated by longtime Sales Reps Joe Dawson and Bret Ritter –that represents the vast breadth of offering that this collection of nursery operations can provide its customers.

One item in particular, Cersis Carolina Sweetheart Tree, was without a doubt the star of the booth. Many trade show attendees stopped by the booth to comment on its beauty and inquire whether they could purchase it and take it home with them! All in all, it was a fun, successful week in Columbus. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and chatted.

And, if you did not get the chance to stop by and see us at Cultivate this past summer, that’s OK! Plan on coming to see us next year. Or find us at one of the winter trade shows in 2023. We’ll be exhibiting at MANTS 2023 in Baltimore, Maryland, in January, and at the iLandscape Show in Schaumberg, Illinois, in early February.
