The Massachusetts Orchid Society proudly presents our Annual Orchid Auction. The auction features various orchids not found in local stores to suit all experience levels and tastes.

In addition to the vast orchid knowledge of our four auctioneers, the event includes live and silent auctions, an information table to address any questions you might have with growing Information sheets, appetizers and a cash bar.

Founded in 1962, the Massachusetts Orchid Society (MOS) educates and promotes interest in orchids to the public through distributing information on their culture, development and hybridization. The society meets the second Tuesday night of each month at the Sons of Italy in Winchester and includes guest speakers, slide shows, plant clinics and show tables for the display of members' plants.
