We are pleased to announce that tropical bonsai expert, Mike Lane from Kitsune Bonsai in Florida, will be the Guest Speaker at our next general meeting on July 7th at 7 pm.  He will be presenting about all things tropical.  As an added benefit, he will be doing a "Bring Your Own Tree" workshop from 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm in the meeting room for individuals looking to improve their tropical and deciduous trees.  The workshop is $40 for our members.  If you don't have a tree that you want to work on, he's bringing some of both his tropical and hardy tree stock with him for purchase.  This is a great opportunity to get some expert advice on your trees. More information is available on our meetings page.

Thanks to all our vendors, volunteers, and visitors that came out this past weekend to the 19th Annual May Exhibit!

The society shifts focus now to prepare for our larger August Exhibition. Begin preparing your trees now, as the 47th Annual Mid-America Bonsai Exhibition will be here before you know it, being held August 15-17 at the Chicago Botanic Garden.

Keep checking our website for updates as we confirm our vendors, schedule workshops, and provide details on how you can register your tree for the exhibition! Details are posted as they become available, to our dedicated page for the August Exhibition. Hope to see you at the Exhibition!
