The Wisconsin Hosta Society holds educational meetings for our members at Olbrich Gardens in Madison. These meetings are held on the 1st Wednesday of the month in March, April, September, and October. Other annual events include hosting a booth at Garden Expo in February, a Leaf Show & Ice Cream Social, a Family Picnic & Auction, and a Harvest Party in November. In addition, we offer local garden tours and host bus trips which include garden tours and opportunities to purchase plants and other garden products. Below is a complete listing of this year’s events; more detailed information will be emailed to the membership closer to each event.
