Our very own Scott Egan recently had the privilege of representing Green by Nature at the 15th International Turfgrass Research Conference in Japan, proudly supported by Envu.

The conference gathered leading turf management professionals, researchers, and industry experts from around the world to share knowledge, discuss challenges, and explore innovations shaping the future of our industry. Key topics included disease control, soil health, workforce development, sustainability, and the latest breakthroughs in turf research.

In addition to the conference sessions, Scott had the opportunity to visit some of Japan’s most iconic sporting venues – Saitama Stadium 2002, Kumagaya Rugby Stadium, Ibaraki Golf Club, and Murasaki Country Club. Each showcased world-class turf standards and design, providing valuable insights and inspiration for our own work back home.

We extend a heartfelt thank you to Craig Burleigh, Colin Mumford, Takanori Miyoshi, and Chenxi Zhang for their warm hospitality and generosity throughout the trip. This experience not only strengthened our global connections but also reaffirmed Green by Nature’s commitment to learning, innovation, and delivering excellence in every project we undertake.
