Our club hosts guest hybridizers from around the country where we get to see their programs and an opportunity to participate in an auction of their plants. Our members also participate in a member driven meeting where we shine a spotlight on our programs and gardens as well as share our knowledge with one another. An optional picnic in the summer at a member's home allows us to see others' gardens on a rotating basis.
