April is a month to celebrate trees, Earth Day and spring. The Oregon Association of Nurseries is asking elementary school-age kids to create colorful artwork around the theme “Plants Make Our Lives Better.” Winning artwork will appear on the cover of Digger, the OAN’s monthly industry publication, in a 2015 e-calendar, on the www.Plant-Something.org Facebook page and www.PlantSomethingOregon.com website, at the 2014 Farwest Trade Show, one of the largest wholesale trade shows in the country, and other venues.
Please help us get the word out by contacting your children’s elementary school teachers and by sharing the contest rules. To be eligible, artwork must be completed in class and postmarked by May 12, 2014. A team of OAN members will select the winning artwork. If you have questions, please contact Ann Murphy at amurphy@oan.org or 503-682-5089.
