Welcome to the Southern California Horticultural
Society,
where passionate gardeners meet to share ideas
and learn from
each other
On the second Thursday of each month, we invite speakers to present a talk or program about their area of expertise. Admission is free for members, children, and students with ID, and $5 for non-members. Meetings also include expert discussion of plants brought in to the Plant Forum table, and we often have Plant Raffles. Plants, used and new books and magazines are usually for sale at the meetings. For more information about the Society, please see our About SCHS page.
Next Meeting:
Thursday, July 13, 2017 at 7:00pm at Friendship Auditorium.
Program:
Lara Hermanson will speak on "Building Sustainable Urban Farms"

Urban farming has humble roots in victory gardening, but now many major residential developments, restaurants, and corporate campuses are making edibles the focus of their gardens. Farmscape’s Lara Hermanson will take us through several of her firm’s major projects and share the lessons learned across 700 urban farms. For more information and directions to Friendship Auditorium, see our
