About IGC: The Independent Garden Center Show

The buzz started Monday, the day before The IGC Show opened, as the Chicagoland Garden Center Tour loaded eight full buses with 450 participants for the sold-out tour of three trend-setting garden centers in and around Chicago. This year’s excursion doubled the capacity from last year and puts the tour at the largest of its kind in all of horticulture. At The IGC Show Conference, crowds gathered from opening day Tuesday through the closing bell Thursday. Thought-provoking keynotes, two-hour workshops, panel discussions and specialty track sessions inspired attendees with the latest trends and profit strategies driving independents’ business.
