The Southern Nursery Association (SNA) has been building a brighter future for the horticulture industry since 1899. Since its inception, SNA has provided wholesale growers, brokers, retailers, landscape contractors, landscape architects, grounds maintenance contractors, interiorscapers and allied suppliers with educational, marketing and networking opportunities essential to the survival of the horticultural industry.
SNA is a professional trade association encompassing the total nursery/landscape industry from nursery production through retailing and landscape installation in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia. With this broad-based membership, including allied industry firms and organizations, the Southern Nursery Association can act with combined strength on those legislative or regulatory issues affecting any one segment of the industry. The SNA today consists of over 1,600 member firms.
As a regional association, SNA works to advance the horticultural industry in the southeast by supporting and enhancing educational, commercial and research opportunities; by gathering, analyzing and disseminating information; and by providing a marketplace to promote the exchange and sale of nursery stock and other allied products to our members, our participating state associations and the industry.
