Introducing the 2022 ‘YEAR OF’ CROPS

The ‘Year of’ program chooses crops specifically for the North American market that are easy to grow, genetically diverse, and with lots of new breeding to showcase.
advertisements, presentations, trade show booths, event exhibits and other marketing materials.
The ‘Year of’ program highlights new crops in each category, generating interest among consumers.
BY NATIONAL GARDEN BUREAU
While consumer publicity starts in January, industry communications begin in late 2021 to help breeders, growers and retailers in their crop planning.
Crops are chosen for each of the six categories: bulbs, annuals, edibles, perennials, flowering shrubs, and the newly added houseplants for 2022.
WHY THE ‘YEAR OF’ PROGRAM?
Breeders, brokers, seed companies, growers and garden centres throughout Canada and the U.S. can use this program as part of their marketing efforts. They can take advantage of the publicity generated by this program by using the photos, fact sheets, social media graphics and logos in their 2022 catalogs, websites,
This fall, the NGB website will post photos provided by NGB members of all six crops, as well as fact sheets, flyers, handouts, signage, posters, PowerPoint presentations, and other assets. After November 1, 2021, all of the above can be downloaded at no charge from the NGB website. To get the logos prior to November 1, simply contact NGB via email. These tools will help the North American home garden industry promote the crops to consumers and encourage gardening with these specific crop classes.
Each crop will be profiled in Greenhouse Canada starting this month. To learn more, turn to the main August issue for the feature on peperomia, the chosen houseplant for 2022.
Founded in 1920, the National Garden Bureau is a non-profit organization whose mission is to disseminate basic instructions for home gardeners. For more information, contact Executive Director, Diane Blazek at blazekdiane@gmail.com
