Next Dig-in Part 1: June 10th & Part 2: July 8th
"Dig In" is ABAS’ new member training program, aimed to introduce newcomers to bonsai basics and teach how to select bonsai material with the most potential. The aim is to help folks fast forward past the early twig phase of collecting that we have all been through and arrive faster at high quality bonsai. The next Dig In sessions are scheduled for Saturday, June 10th and July 8th, 2023 and will last a good part of the day. Participants will visit a garden center on the first day to focus on material evaluation, with the option to purchase their own nursery stock. During the afternoon workshop, students will learn tools and techniques during a styling workshop on the morning’s finds. The second session in May will likely start with a visit to a local bonsai nursery instead of a garden center, with an additional afternoon styling session. All newcomers are strongly encouraged to participate. At $20 for both days, you can’t find a better opportunity to accelerate your skills. This workshop is open to all ABAS members, including past participants, so sign up now! Fill out the form below or Email Roger Steel to sign up or for more information. rogersteel@comcast.net
