Membership Information

Licensed and Insured Members are promoted by our website as the cream of the crop.  These businesses are recognized at both the state and federal level.  They carry all necessary insurance.  They ensure that their employees have Workmen's Compensation.  And if required they have a Pesticide Charter and Nursery Certificate from Tennessee Department of Agriculture for the services they provide.  We do not publish or share this information.  We only want to highlight our members that have invested in following the law.  If this is you don't settle for an Affiliate Membership.  This membership includes member pricing to all our events and a listing on our website.  The annual membership fee for this level is $60 for one more year.

Affiliate Members are businesses that are in the process of building.  We understand that it takes time to collect all of the licenses mentioned above.  We also recognize that they don't apply to some businesses.  An Affiliate Membership only differs from the Licensed and Insured Membership by not being included on the Licensed and Insured List on our website.  This membership includes member pricing to all our events and a listing on our website.  The annual membership fee for this level is also $60 for one more year.
