Congrats to the
2025 Green Profit/The Garden Center Group Young Retailer
Award winner:
Brandon Kirby from Rainbow Gardens, San Antonio, Texas!
Do you know of an excellent, hard-working professional under the age of 35? You
should nominate them for the
2026 Green Profit/The Garden Center Group Young Retailer Award! For the last 20 years, we’ve recognized young
garden center pros for standing out from the crowd in this tough business, who—for whatever noble reasons—have chosen to have a career in this industry.
After three finalists are chosen, each is asked to write guest editorials for the
June issue of
Green Profit, gets a free trip to Cultivate’26 and, while
they’re in Columbus, attend a special dinner with industry luminaries. The winner
is announced at the Unplugged event during Cultivate’26, will be the subject of
our September issue cover story and serve as one of our judges for next year’s award.
Nominate someone (or yourself) today! The deadline is March 1, 2026.
An extra special thanks goes to The Garden Center Group and AmericanHort for sponsoring
this year’s award!
