Membership

Satisfy your desire to continue learning and growing. Before each speaker meeting, members have time to chat over coffee and dessert. You’ll also find a professional horticulturalist to answer your questions or to discuss a gardening challenge you are facing. Plus we encourage our business members to share information about their services at meetings.

Your support also enables us to be the leading provider of horticultural scholarships to University of Connecticut (UConn) and Naugatuck Valley Community College (NVCC) students, who are Connecticut’s horticultural future.  Members share a simple philosophy: the world of plants is a necessary element for bringing tranquility to the soul.  As a member, you’ll find many resources for the heart and mind.

Members enjoy numerous benefits and privileges not available to the general public:

  • Email notice of all events
  • Access (via Zoom or in-person) to nine speakers each season
  • Video recordings of past speakers
  • Member rates on trips, events, and workshops
  • 10 Issues of the CT Hort Newsletter
  • Annual reviews of horticulture books
