CANBY, Ore. – Terra Nova Nurseries, a global leader in plant breeding, recently hosted its 2025 Open House event at the company’s facility in Canby, Oregon, during the Farwest Show week, August 18-22. The event attracted a crowd of nearly 100 guests across the horticulture industry, including growers, buyers, brokers and other trade professionals.
