Speaker: Katie Elzer-Peters, CEO, The Garden of Words LLC
Attendees will learn about the rise of maker spaces at retail and how a garden center can hop on board this emerging, profitable trend driven by the age 25–45 demographic. They will learn how to teach two types of garden-adjacent creative art projects that use the same low-cost supplies and can be reimagined for various holidays and seasons. The projects can be geared toward adult and child audiences, providing multiple revenue opportunities.
