Texas Turfgrass Association History

The Texas Turfgrass Association was founded in January 1947 at Texas A&M University with guidance from state and nationally acclaimed business and turfgrass leaders who held common interests in promoting fine turfgrass in Texas.

The conference was held annually at Texas A&M until 1980, when membership peaked at approximately 500. Since 1980, the conference has rotated between Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas-Ft. Worth, and our membership has grown to over 1500.

The Association is one of the strongest in the nation. The Texas turfgrass industry has grown to a $6 BILLION impact on the Texas economy.

The Texas Turfgrass Association leads the way for this growing industry in Texas.
