The display table will be filled with orchids growing inside and outside of terrariums.

Vendors will offer a large selection of rare and exotic orchids from around the world for you to purchase.

Orchid society members will be available to diagnose problem orchids and repot them at a nominal cost for materials.

There are going to be presentations on how to care for your orchids and answer your questions. (Saturday & Sunday at 2:00).

New this year there will be a demonstration on how to make your own terrarium. (Saturday at 1:00).

The Art League of Nassau County will have local artists painting outdoors all weekend. Their works will be on display at the festival. There will also be an orchid watercolor demonstration (Sunday at 1:00).
