I started an orchid society in Colorado. I was requested to do so by a few people so I did. I always put our Meetings in the 2 local papers and in a town away from us. I also post it on Craigslist. I have sent flyers to local florist shops/ greenhouses and we just put up a display at a local Orchid show. Many of our members are older and are new to growing orchids. I am going to put up flyers at our local university. Any other suggestions? Anyone? I really want this to be sucessful I am afraid that many people have been burned by buying at local box stores without the proper instructions and are afraid they cannot grow orchids. Buying at the box stores are not bad. How do I get more members?

Thanks,
Bonnie
