Landscape Horticulture Club

The Landscape Horticulture Club aims to further the education of the students involved with a variety of horticulture related activities. The club tours regional arboretums and landscapes to stimulate appreciation for the horticulture field. Funds for these trips are raised by growing and marketing plants at our spring plant sale, as well as additional fund raising events. A portion of the funds raised are donated to charities in the La Crosse area. In addition to planting trees around campus, the club grows plants for local community gardens, and helps care for much of Western's landscape. The Landscape Horticulture Club is proud to contribute to the beauty of the Western Technical Campus.
 
 The Landscape Horticulture Club also contributes to the community through their involvement in landscape design, and some installations and maintenance for charitable organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, Hillview Life Center, City of La Crosse Parks, and other agencies. The club awards a minimum of one scholarship each year to a member who has demonstrated commitment to the club and the profession.
