So proud of our association. Two of our members supported this trade show, as Father and daughter teams.
It’s wonderful to our young women in the industry succession planning into their family farms.
Good on you Adrian and Darcie Pitsikas from Greenacres Turf Group and Terry Sellick and his daughter Alira, from Lawn Doctor, for being at this event sharing information on turf grass varieties and providing free giveaways.
I’m so proud of our industry! There is always camaraderie and friendship, and never competitive behaviours. All of our members have great ethic and integrity and care about each other. Always giving a hand to each other, sharing equipment, advise and jobs. They’re rippers! And they provide the best turf always.
Good on you guys for supporting this terrific LIAWA – Landscape Industries Association of WA event. Thanks LIAWA for the opportunity. 😊
