JUNE 13, 2011 (HOLBROOK, NEB.)—GROW Nebraska proudly announces the availability of its full-color 2011 GROW Book, a directory of 283 members. The book includes Nebraska entrepreneurs and their unique products and services, as well as the location of GROW Nebraska retail stores. This 64-page publication was designed, written and printed entirely in Nebraska.

Janell Anderson Ehrke, GROW Nebraska director, said the main purpose of the GROW Book is to fully inform consumers and wholesale buyers about the abundance of Nebraska designed and created products.
