The world has come together for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, BC, Canada for two weeks of the best sports competition. However, the Olympics are much more than a competition; they provide an opportunity for the world to unite on a positive playground. Indoor garden lovers can experience a similar unity at the upcoming Indoor Gardening Expos planned for Montréal and San Francisco this year. More than just a showcase of products, the expos unite the industry globally and provide the platform for meeting, learning and networking. More information on these upcoming events, including sponsorship opportunities for the upcoming 7th Annual San Francisco Expo, is available below and on indoorgardenexpo.com
