Buyer Beware of Fraudulent Solicitations A number of our exhibitors have been contacted with erroneous claims made "on behalf of" New England Grows. Please be on the look out for offers that arrive either by phone, regular mail or e-mail with offers for everything from "show guide advertising" to "discounted hotel rooms." These companies are in no way associated with New England Grows. We strongly urge you to carefully examine all solicitations and bring any erroneous claims to our attention.
