  • Saturday, October 21, 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm – Socotra!

    Back in January 2023, Cactus and Succulent Society of Massachusetts members Marek and Maria Kawka joined a Plant Expedition trip to the Yemeni island of Socotra. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Socotra is situated in the Arabian Sea between the Horn of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. 

    It was an amazing adventure – Maria and Marek were lucky enough to see many of the unique endemic plants of Socotra.  They also enjoyed experiencing the interesting culture of local Yemeni people. Our intrepid travelers will share pictures of the many plants that were in bloom as well as a few stories from their travels around Socotra, on Saturday, October 21, from 1 – 4 at the Norfolk Public Library, 2 Liberty Lane in Norfolk, Massachusetts. 

    Don’t miss this amazing journey as seen through the eyes and cameras of our very own club members Marek and Maria. For more information visit https://cssma.org/meetings-%26-programs
