These purposes are expressly limited so that the AHS qualifies as an exempt organization under Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 or the corresponding provision of any future U.S Internal Revenue Law.

The annual convention is a chance for young and old hosta enthusiasts and friends to get together and celebrate the friendship plant. Please join us.
