WHO WE ARE
About Us
Starting in May 2023,our meetings will be on the 3rd Monday of every month at 1:00 p.m. at the Port St. Lucie Botanical Gardens except for:
June (Annual Picnic)
July and August (Summer Break)
December (Holiday Luncheon).
Our meetings are venues for information sharing and interaction with professional growers and speakers as well as classes. Meetings include “Show and Tell” for members to show off their blooming orchids, raffles, orchid exchanges, and refreshments. Meetings frequently include an educational workshop starting at noon. We have an annual picnic, holiday luncheon, and a large orchid show. which is sanctioned and judged by the American Orchid Society.
Membership is open to anyone who has an interest in orchids, regardless of an individual's level of expertise. We believe that we should "pay it forward," taking what has been taught to us and sharing our knowledge with others, both within the Society and with the general public.
We invite you to join us and learn about orchids.
