ABOUT OUR SOCIETY:

The Fort Pierce Orchid Society was formed on October 13, 1962 by a group of local hobby growers. The Society was incorporated under the laws of Florida on June 18, 1965 and has been tax exempt since 1968. The charter states the objects and purposes as follows:
 

To encourage and foster the growing of   orchids for pleasure.

 

To create an environment that will attract all persons with an interest in orchids and orchid growing.

 

To promote better knowledge and appreciation of orchids among the members of the society and the community.

 

To encourage a free exchange of experience and ideas so that all members may become better orchid growers.

 

To cultivate a keener perception of the beauty of color and form in order to obtain the fullest enjoyment possible for orchids.

 

To recognize and appreciate the vast area of orchid knowledge from which all society members may benefit.

 

To enable all members of the society to contribute substantially to the knowledge and enjoyment of orchids, and to share the society’s collective knowledge of orchid appreciation and orchid growing with all other members of the society and community.

 

The charter membership was closed on

 March 1, 1963.

 

 Anyone interested is cordially invited to join us. Whether you are a virtual newcomer or an accomplished orchid grower, we will welcome you and make you a valued member. Our dues are $10 for individuals and $15 for joint membership per year. Please feel free to attend one of our meetings as a guest. For more information, just call any of our Board or Committee members.
