Fastest news
We know you’re busy, and, as hard as it is for us to swallow, we know you don’t read every story of every issue of Lawn & Landscape. And we know you don’t have endless hours available to click on every link of our website, www.lawnandlandscape.com. Well, we have a great way for you to get quick hits of news and feature stories delivered right to your inbox – our newsletters.

We have nine newsletters delivering unique content from the latest news in the industry to the newest products to feature stories from contractors like you.

To sign up for one (or all!) of our newsletters, visit www.lawnandlandscape.com and click on the E-Newsletters link on the left side of the page. All you’ll need to do is create a log-in (it’s easy) and click the newsletters you want to receive. Enjoy these quick hits of information ... but don’t forget the magazine and website.

Times are a-changin’
We’ve had some exciting changes in our horticulture group at GIE Media, parent company of Lawn & Landscape. One of those changes has been that our sister magazines that serve the rest of the green industry have focused more on their websites and social media. So, while they don’t have stories about landscapers or lawn care operators, they do write about the greenhouses, nurseries and garden centers you work with. So, to get some insight into how your suppliers and colleagues work, check out Greenhouse Management Magazine at www.greenhousemanagementonline.com and @greenhousemag; Garden Center Magazine at www.gardencentermagazine.com and @gardencentermag and Nursery Management Magazine at www.nurserymanagementonline.com and @NurseryMag.

Easy surfin’
We’ve also recently made a few tweaks to www.lawnandlandscape.com. We’ll continue to it over the next few months, and we recently made a tweak to make browsing easier. The menu bar on the left side of our homepage is now divided into categories to give you an idea of what kind of content you will be viewing. Before we just had one long list (yuck, right?). Now it’s broken up into four different sections, Magazine, Interactive, Resources and Contact. Not only is it more appealing to the eye, but it will make it easier for you to navigate the Lawn & Landscape site. So, take a look when you get a minute, and keep checking back for future improvements.
