October 1-2
9 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Join us for the annual Orchid Sale and Symposium. The event will take place outdoors, under the Banyan Tree and surrounding areas. Multiple workshops will be offered each day and vendors will have rare and unusual orchids for sale. Orchids also will be available in the Garden Shoppe.
A daily ticket is required to attend the workshops ($20 for Edison Ford members; $25 for non-members); the sale portion of the event is free to attend. Tickets do not include tours or admission to the museum, lab or riverside of the property. A limited number of garden carts will be available; guests are encouraged to bring their own. Food and beverage vendors will be onsite with refreshments available for purchase.
