WHOLESALE PRICELIST 2019 PREMIER FAMILY NURSERY STOCK GROWER FOR OVER 90 YEARS Dear Friends, The number 94 isn’t really all that special as integers go. It does, however, have a few things going for it. It is the atomic number of Plutonium. In mathematics, it is the only number greater than one that equals the sum of the squares of the digits of their own square in base 11. If you call Sri Lanka on a regular basis, you are certainly aware that 94 is the code for international direct dial phone calls to that country. 94 feet just happens to be the official length of an NBA basketball court. Most importantly, it is the number of years that the Kankakee Nursery has been in operation. OK, I get it. 94 years is not as cool a milestone as say 95 or 100 years, but we’re pretty proud of the accomplishment nevertheless. In our 94th year, we have continued to progress in a number of ways. We have just completed three state-of-the-art greenhouses devoted exclusively to the production of tree liners. Thanks to our crack IT team, we have made many advances that touch all aspects of our operation. Advances have accelerated in inventory control, customer service, and quality control just to name a few. We continue our strong commitment to the future by significantly expanding the lining out of both our trees and evergreens. The impressive growth and development of our fourth generation is ongoing and a joy to watch as they take on more daily responsibility. Please allow me one shameless plug for the Illinois Green Industry Association (formerly the Illinois Nurserymen’s Association). I am honored to be the current President of this organization. Our new executive director, Kellie Schmidt, brings with her an infectious enthusiasm and a renewed sense of purpose to our association. Please visit illinoisgreen.net for more information and reasons to join or get more involved with our group as we continue to advocate for all horticultural enterprises in our state. Finally, I just want to thank you for your continuing support in allowing us to have another successful year. Whether you have been in business less than a year, or you’re an “old-timer” like us, I speak for everyone here in wishing you a peaceful and prosperous 2019.
