If horticulture has a Hall of Fame, we need to get these two guys in it

Horticulture just lost about 90 years of experience, professionalism, knowledge, skill and passion. Fortunately, in a good way – both Jerry Bleckley and Scott Thompson retired from long and successful careers at Prospiant.

Scott combined his retirement date with his birthday earlier this week. “Congratulations on many years with us – you’ve had a hand in many, many greenhouses over the years”, the team shared with a video of some or the projects Scott has been involved in.

Jerry Bleckley’s last day followed only a few days later. “Jerry has been selling greenhouses since before our sales director was born!”, the team shared. “Jerry’s father had a saying: “It doesn’t matter if the mule is dead, keep loading the wagon” which makes absolutely no sense, but is no less hilarious for that! Keep loading that wagon, Jerry!” And of course, also a video to show a handful of the projects Jerry’s been involved in.

“Absolut legends, congratulations”, colleague Jeff Smesmo commented. “If horticulture has a Hall of Fame, we need to get these two guys in it! ”
