 University of Saskatchewan Horticulture Club
Welcome to the Hort Club! You are a member of one of the most exciting campus clubs
at the University of Saskatchewan. We are composed mainly of undergraduate students
who are interested in the ever-expanding and diversifying field of Horticultural Science.
The Hort Club gives students the chance to develop practical skills in planting, growing,
harvesting, and processing local produce. We maintain greenhouse space throughout
the winter where we grow houseplants and vegetables, and run a large collective garden
all summer. We have workshops and seminars throughout the year on various
horticulture-related topics such as exotic fruits, orchids, houseplant propagation, wine
making, pickling, and more.

Most of all, we are not afraid to get our hands dirty, we rise to the challenge, and we
welcome new opportunities to excel. If you have any more great ideas or projects for us
to undertake, contact any of the executive – we'd love to hear from you! We look
forward to participating with you in our many events and activities!
