Hosted by the Western North Carolina Orchid Society, the 21st annual Asheville Orchid Festival will be held on Saturday, April 6, and Sunday, April 7, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day at The North Carolina Arboretum. World-class orchid growers and breeders along with regional orchid societies will exhibit hundreds of orchids in carefully crafted displays during the two-day event. Attendees will discover rare orchid species, cutting-edge hybrids and something for all orchid lovers. In addition to the Orchid Expo, visitors can purchase their own orchid plants and supplies from vendors from across the United States and Ecuador.
Admission into the Asheville Orchid Festival is $5 per person, and children 12 and under are free. Standard parking fees apply for non-members of The North Carolina Arboretum. All admission proceeds will benefit WNCOS, a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, and will help expand the orchid society’s mission of “sharing the excitement and joy of cultivating orchids and promoting orchid conservation.”
