All are cordially invited to attend our meetings and activities.

Club meetings feature a mix of talented lecturers/demonstrators with hands-on learning activities to further our knowledge and understanding of bonsai techniques and procedures. The club sponsors workshops conducted by bonsai masters, beginner oriented classes, and study groups led by highly trained teachers. Whether you are a novice or an experienced bonsai enthusiast, Midori will help expand your appreciation, skills and overall knowledge of the wonderful world of miniature trees.

You need no prior gardening experience or a green thumb to become proficient in the art of bonsai. As a member we request that you contribute some time and energy in support of club activities and participate in the Annual Show and two fundraising auctions held annually in June and December. Only through the active support of our members can we continue to provide top quality bonsai masters and instructors for our monthly programs, classes and workshops.


Club Dues

If you become interested in joining, our annual membership dues (Jan through Dec) are $40.00 per single and $50.00 per couple or family, plus $15.00 per person to cover the cost of a nametag. Dues are reduced by 50% after July 1.

The object is not to make the tree look like a bonsai, but to make the bonsai look like a tree.
