To kick off LCI?EUR??,,????'???s 25th year of publishing, we sat down to evaluate our goals and objectives as a magazine publisher and as a media outlet in the landscape industry.

It took several long . . . Did I say l-o-n-g . . . meetings to put into words what we value as a business and what value we strive to bring to the Landscape industry.

They say the committee charged with building a horse came up with the camel . . . Not nearly as elegant, but very durable and efficient in the desert.

Well, it took a committee to develop the LCI Mission Statement, but I think we nailed it and came up with a horse that has the assets of a camel. In any event, whether you are a reader, a show attendee, a service provider or an advertiser, here is what you can count on from an LCI media platform . . .
