i'll begin. am a member of the following societies:
African Violet Society of America (4 years)
American Orchid Society (2 years)
American Gloxinia and Gesneriad Society (2 years)
American Rose Society (just joined up)
i learn a lot of stuff through their monthly/quarterly publications. really helps answer my questions concerning species i'm most interested in. the membership dues can be expensive (ARS and AOS are the most expensive out of the ones i belong to).

those societies can point you in the right direction in finding a local club to join. you don't have to show plants (although the local AVSA chapter said i'd be showing plants after my first year)...haven't been back because of work committments. still get mailings from them.
