Subject: GREEN ROOTS MUST SPREAD TO GROW!
Dear Bob Degemmis,
Thank you for your encouraging words and your assistance at keeping Missouri Landscape & Nursery Association on track. MLNA appreciates the umbrella ANLA affords as well as the outlet opportunity for ideas and communication exchange on the website.
Per our past communications, I know you are aware of MLNA’s effort to wake up after a very sleepy association time. Our membership has not had such a lax period; they have been wide awake and working to survive in a changing business/economic environment.
Please post this MLNA survey on the ANLA website.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TOPIC: Participation in Professional Organizations
If you are an organization representative; what has been your best response to member services and benefits your organization offers?
[MLNA members have benefited from MaryAnn’ Fink’s “matchmaking” service. She makes contacts for them and shares information between growers, retailers, landscapers and product suppliers and educators. MLNA members appreciate the website job posting and MLNA’s willingness to approach service and product providers and request member discounts as well. MaryAnn is quite the industry “matchmaker”.]

Thank you for your participation. Please visit www.mlna.org for survey feed back. MaryAnn Fink
I have been told that “belonging” to a professional organization has only as much value as the membership places on being professional. MLNA must stretch beyond the individual, increase the impact at the local level for the profit and offer an overview and preview of what lies ahead in our industry and beyond to create a positive impact on the business professional.
MLNA believes it is critical to improve our handholding ability and share a wider platform. We are the leaders not just the vehicle for this green band wagon. We are the “greenest of green”. As “green practitioners”, we have chosen this passionate profession because of our “green hearts”. We have invested in this platform built on the environment with our lives. Our investment will save everyone’s future!
I look forward to hearing from others who believe that our industry needs umbrella organizations such as MLNA and ANLA to build a strong team to pull this green wagon toward a greener ($) future!
