History of the Hort Club

The Penn State horticulture club is made up of students who are working toward a career in horticulture and landscaping. Each autumn, club members organize an important fundraising event and attraction - Hort Show. Visitors are invited to come view the indoor gardens, purchase plants, bulbs, and a variety of local produce. Plant materials for sale come from donations from local nurseries and are not limited to those featured in the plant wish list. Proceeds are mostly used to fund the following year's show.
