      Happy New Year!




      2022 has finally arrived, and the interior
                bit
          rebirth!


      A fantastic announcement from Green
      Plants for Green Buildings (GPGB)
      President, Mike Senneff regarding the
      formation of GPGB’s new endowment
      fund named the Interior Initiative Growth
      Fund (IIGF).


      This new endowment fund is managed by
      the National Horticulture Foundation (NHF)
      and is to be used to help guide our indus-
      try into the future.  The creation of the new
      endowment fund will help create continued
      support for education, research and mar-
      keting initiatives related to the interior land-
      scaping industry.


      We at I-Plants Magazine are very proud to
      partner  with  FNGLA,  NHF  &  GPGB  to  bring
      the International Plantscape Awards and
      Hall of Fame to TPIE in Tampa, Florida this
      January.  The proceeds raised for the 2022
      Awards Gala will go to support the IIGF fund
      which will create long term sustainability
      for the industry.


      I hope
              opportunity                   and
      support  this  new  initiative  that will  help
      build  a sustainable future for our industry.
