Other Activities
We have two show and sales each year, one
in the spring and one in the fall. We have occasional field trips
to ranches and nurseries to observe succulents in habitat and “in
captivity”. We have an extensive library
of cactus and succulent publications which is available for members
to use. Membership also includes a subscription to The Cacto-Files,
our monthly newsletter.
Membership in our society shall be open to anyone having an active
interest in cacti and succulents. Our membership includes people
of varied backgrounds, ages, and interests. Annual dues are $15
