Welcome to the Bristol Branch of the British Cactus and Succulent Society. We hold meetings in North Bristol each month. They feature the best speakers from around the country, entertaining us with stories of their cactus and succulent experiences, often illustrated with slide shows.
Meetings are normally held on the 3rd Tuesday of the Month, at 7.30pm.
The meeting place is:
Filton Folk Centre,
Elm Park,
Filton,
Bristol,
BS34 7PS
See map below
The Cost for the evening's entertainment is a very modest £3.00 or you can buy a season ticket at £27 for all 12 meetings. In addition to the main talk you have the opportunity to chat with other growers over tea and biscuits in the break. Your complementary raffle ticket offers a chance to win an interesting plant, or maybe a box of chocolates!
