February Seed Distribution at the Virginia General Assembly

“We are so glad to see you all again!” was commonly heard in the halls of Virginia’s General Assembly Building. From elected officials to clerical staff, smiles appeared when they saw our wagons full of three-pound bags of fescue seed. They knew a greener future awaited them! Kurt Fellenstein of Trinity Turf donated every one of those 350 bags of goodwill. Diligent and purposeful work, such as distributing seeds and Service Projects, have cultivated a very positive view of our industry among decision makers across the state. Make plans to join us at next year’s seed distribution.

Our destination: the General Assembly Building
