It is usually quite cheap to join an Orchid Society. Ours is $20 for a year and, in November, you get a free orchid that would cost at least that much so it is a really good deal. You don't have to attend meetings but they sometimes have very good speakers that are really worth it. |
That sounds great! Making it a family affair ought to be a fun bonding moment. That's cool that your family's even into it. I've thought about inviting my mom and sister to a show with me. Not that they wouldn't be at least a little interested but I think they'd be interested enough to say oooo and ahh, appease me and then be ready for lunch!
I'm a little more invested than that. But I am considering joining a society, maybe attending a meeting or two as I have heard about the talks they have, like talks about orchid photography!

My husband took some pictures so I thought I'd post some.
