RE: [GWL]: Gardening/MG stats




Jeff,
I don't have a copy of the NGA survey, but I recently got the latest figures 
from Bruce Butterfield at NGA for an article. The 1999-2000 survey shows the 
total spent on lawn and garden in the U.S. is $33.5 billion/year, which 
breaks down to $532/household. They will be doing a new survey this spring. 
I don't know how lawn care figures into the mix. Another fact I ran across, 
applications for the MG program here, which covers about three IL. counties, 
have jumped by 33 percent this year over a fairly consistent number in past 
years. I wonder if other areas of the country are seeing this. Does anyone 
know?
