The best way to find one is to get in contact with the closest bonsai club. There is a club in Morgantown:
WEST VIRGINIA - Morgantown
Mountaineer Bonsai Society. Meetings are held on the third Thursday of every month at 7 PM in the Evansdale Greenhouse Division of Plant and Soil Sciences, West Virginia University. Morgantown, West Virginia 26506 Phone: (304)293-4480 Current President: Tom Simonyi
