Our mission is to promote knowledge and interest in cacti and succulent plants through educational programs, public exhibits, a public garden, and sharing of this common interest.

Here are a few of the benefits of your new membership:

  1. Espinas y Flores, our informative monthly newsletter, accessible via the internet. The EyF is jam-packed with items of interest not only about our club, but other similar organizations too!
  2. Interesting monthly presentations by experts well-known in the field of botany or a related subject area, mostly specific to the subject of cactus and succulents. Many of our speakers have traveled around the world, and all of them proudly share with us their wonderful photographs, experiences and knowledge.
  3. An extensive lending library, open for the use of all members. Just show your membership card, and you are free to check out books for one month at a time. These are books by well-known authorities in our areas of interest. New books are periodically added to the collection.
  4. Access to professional growers and experts in the field of cactus and succulent cultivation. Everyone is happy to help you with any questions you may have. We firmly believe there is no such thing as a dumb question!
  5. Invitations to our annual picnic (usually in September) and Holiday party!
  6. Coffee-In-the-Garden Events to visit some member's beautiful garden.
  7. Field trips and bus excursions to places and events of interest.
  8. Opportunities to participate in and volunteer at our twice-yearly show and sale – in February and June of each year. By volunteering, you meet other members and learn more about the plants!
  9. An exchange table to choose a plant/cutting to take home if you bring a plant/cutting to share.
  10. A Brag Table at each meeting to show your special cactus and succulent plants and win prizes.
  11. Opportunities to volunteer at the Safari Park Baja and Old World Succulent Gardens.
  12. Opportunities to visit the Huntington Botanical Gardens for the Cactus and Succulent Society of America (CSSA) events.
