Join your fellow industry members for a fun, interactive, and educational event for families in your local community. Both kids and parents will have the opportunity to get up close and personal with various types of industry vehicles and equipment, allowing them to explore and learn about the exciting world of landscaping. This event is a great way to showcase your profession, promote the career benefits and the many career paths available in this dynamic industry.

Charity partnership:

Join us in making a difference at the Touch-A-Truck event as we come together to support The Foodbank of Waterloo Region through the Stuff-A-Truck campaign.

Why the food bank? 1 in 10 households in Waterloo region struggle to afford to put food on the table. That number is up from 1 in 14 households. Last year the Community Food Assistance Network supported 58,688 individuals in need, 13,971 being children.
