The Oriskany Herb and Flower Festival is this Saturday June 27th, from 9:30am to 3:30pm. Our club will have a tent/booth with free information available and plants for sale. Club Members will be manning the booth for the whole show. There also will be many vendors and informational plant-related talks all day, so come on out and support the club! The weather should be great, and the Festival is always an important destination for dedicated plant-people! Directions to the Festival
Our 2008 Fall Show and Sale went fairly well this year, though attendance and sales were down a bit. Details and pictures of the show (pictures now uploaded 12/10/08) can be viewed here.
Our website now hosts three photo galleries. One is our Virtual Showtable page, which also has a section for you to display your growing areas. The second is the Show Pictures page where images from our orchid shows can be viewed, and the third gallery is the Native Orchids page. Several members and friends go on orchid treks each year, and this is where they can post and you can view their pictures. Sometimes they also take pictures of other interesting plants they find along the way.
If you are a member of a neighboring orchid society and would like to post pictures, please contact Charles Ufford for details.
Also a reminder that our newsletter and website have a section where Members can post a list of orchids or orchid-related items they wish to sell/buy/trade. If you are a neighboring orchid society (including Canada) and will be having an orchid auction, these can be listed there as well as on our events calendar. Send requests to Newsletter Editor Eva Galson and your list will be put in the newsletter and on our website. Please submit your request at least two weeks before the next scheduled meeting - Thanks!
Hope to see you at our next meeting or event!
