History
Horticultural Art Society of Colorado Springs, Inc. (HAS) is a non-profit organization founded in 1962 by local horticulturalists – amateur and professional.
Its membership is open to all people who have an interest in gardening. HAS is dedicated to learning about appropriate plant materials and cultivation methods for the Pikes Peak region and enriching our community by sharing this knowledge.
Our Gardens
Horticultural Art Society’s primary activity is maintaining three public gardens in the city-owned Monument Valley Park system the Demonstration Garden, the Heritage Garden, and the Pinetum). We invite you to visit them (the Demonstration Garden is at Cache la Poudre and Glen Ave, the Heritage Garden is a block and half north of the Demonstration Garden, and the Pinetum is across the creek from the Heritage Garden).
HAS employs a professional gardener who maintains the gardens with the help of member volunteers. Volunteer training is provided and is always welcome, whether for specific limited projects or for regularly scheduled maintenance.
