Membership
Annual membership is available by registering for the Great Lakes Expo each year. For those wishing to be MSHS members, check fruit on the registration form. For more information on the Expo, visit the Great Lakes Fruit, Vegetable and Farm Market Expo web site.
Note: Registration materials will state a "Life Membership" category. New life memberships are currently not available. Those who are currently life members must register each year for convention attendance, although they remain Michigan State Horticultural Society (MSHS) members throughout their lifetime. Annual members register each year for convention attendance and MSHS membership.
Board of Directors
The society is managed by a Board of Directors which operate according to the MSHS Constitution and the MSHS Byaws.
