ICN Professional of the Year

Each year, IGIA identifies an outstanding Illinois Nursery Professional of the Year. That person volunteers their time to serve members of the Illinois Green Industry Association, gets involved in their community to promote our industry's cause, and goes above and beyond in the industry to educate others, support customers, and more. We honor the recipient of this award at the Annual Chuck Tosovsky Memorial Tribute Dinner in January.

Do you know someone in the green industry who deserves recognition as the ICN Pro of the year?
