Monthly Meeting

Thursday October 4, 2012 at 7 pm

"Peru - Land of the Inca, Land of Cacti"

Presented by Mark Muradian



This program, titled "Peru, Land of the Inca, Land of cacti" was taken in September of 2010. Starting in Chiclayo, and ending in Cuzco, we travelled by bus to many habitats, sometimes on roads no bus should ever attempt to drive! This program is a video presentation, with all the sounds and motion to help the viewer feel as if they are there. With the optional fly over of the Nazca lines and the mandatory visit to Machu Picchu, this was an exciting trip to be on. I have been in the cactus hobby close to 30 years and have been making pottery for some 17 years, and am a third-generation family farmer in the central valley, farming some acreage since 1915.

Mark will be bringing his special pottery and will have it presented for sale. This will be a video program presentation and should be a really special event that is quite different from all others. Be sure to come and view this special program, enjoy excellent food, win some choice plants and also stay and get your FREE plant at the ending bell.

A variety of cacti native to Peru and
South America will be offered this month.
