Today wraps up Turf & Rec’s annual Equipment Week. We wish to thank our sponsors: Kress and Greenworks. Be sure to visit their websites for more information about their line of products. As we move through the next 12 months, more information will be posted to our Equipment Week page so that you can stay abreast of pertinent news and information.

With the new Kress Commercial 8-minute CyberSystem™ battery platform – providing 10 times the life cycles, two times the power output and the ability to recharge each 60v battery pack to 100% in only eight minutes – commercial landscapers can finally replace their messy gas-powered equipment without sacrificing performance, power or runtime.

There’s always a cost to acquiring new equipment, but Greenworks Commercial equipment is a great investment that pays for itself. Battery-powered equipment will save your business big bucks in fuel savings alone! With no fuel to purchase at record high prices at the pumps, battery equipment offer savings every day.

Greenworks equipment also uses brushless motor technology that has fewer moving parts, a long-life cycle and requires virtually no maintenance … providing additional cost savings!

Turf & Rec will be paying tribute in 2023 to some of the outstanding women in the professional turfgrass industry, whether it’s the golf, landscaping, lawn care, sports turf or other sector.

We are seeking nominations for those women who have demonstrated a strong work ethic, leadership, initiative and are actively involved in the industry.

Nominations and self-nominations are open until Feb. 15.
