Chapters
Landscape Ontario's membership is organized by a chapter system.
Trade Shows
Landscape Ontario started its January trade show Congress in 1973. The show is now in the top five horticultural shows in North America with over 8 acres (32,000 m2) of exhibits plus 12,500 trade visitors.
In 2003 a secondary fall buying show was created called Garden Expo. Over the years this show has merged with other like minded shows like the National Hardware Show and continually partners up with Flowers Canada which changed the shows name to Garden and Floral Expo. To alleviate confusion, the show is now known as Landscape Ontario's Expo.
Consumer Shows
Landscape Ontario and the Garden Club of Toronto founded Canada Blooms in 1996.
