In addition to continuing its sponsoring of the Professional Landcare Network (PLANET) Student Career Days, The Toro Co. also is hosting a workshop on environmentally friendly business practices at this year’s event, slated for March 12-15 at North Carolina State University.

Presented by Van Cline, Ph.D, chief agronomist at Toro, the workshop will focus on the need for efficient use of resources and technology solutions that allow landscape professionals to promote sustainable practices in their operations.

“We are excited to be a part of this important event that helps educate tomorrow’s landscape professionals,” said Chris Hannan, marketing manager for Toro. “Sharing insight with tomorrow’s leaders and supporting this event not only helps to build a brighter future for our industry, but also teaches these students to be responsible stewards of the land by reinforcing the importance of environmental sustainability.”
