As an individual seeking knowledge in the absorbing art of bonsai you will discover sufficient information here to care for your tree until you gain in experience.

Federation Overview

The Federation of British Bonsai Societies (FoBBS) is the principal co-ordinating body for bonsai clubs in the UK. Our main responsibilities are to represent our member societies, to provide them with information, to co-ordinate their activities where possible, and to attend large scale national events.

When requested, we can give help and advice to clubs on setting up exhibitions, workshops etc. FoBBS also acts as a central information point for the general public, giving information on local clubs, traders and events.

We also offer the chance to join our £2,000,000 public liability insurance cover at a substantially lower rate than individual clubs could obtain.
