Monthly general meetings are held every 2nd Monday of the month at 7pm. During these meetings, we cover a variety of topics from horticultural care to aesthetic principles in a range of formats, including show and tells, critiques, demonstrations, and much more from both local experts and international bonsai masters.

Perfect for novice and beginner members! The TBS offers dedicated sessions covering the basics of bonsai care and maintenance, held the last Tuesday of each month. Learn essential techniques and get personalized guidance to help start your bonsai journey with confidence.
