Opechee Garden Club is pleased to announce that Educator and Naturalist, Jean Stafinak, will provide information on growing orchids on May 1,, 2023 at 1PM, The presentation will take place at the Gilford Community Church, Potter Hill Road, Gilford,NH. The public is invited to attend free of charge.

Jean is an Educator and Naturalist, whose passion is for species orchids, and the habitats to which have adapted throughout the world. She enjoys traveling, photographing orchids and other plants and animals in nature, and becoming friends with people from near and far. North American travels have ranged from the polar Arctic tundra in Canada, to California and the Olympic Peninsula; from New England and the Maritimes, from Arizona to the Florida swamps including extremely rare ghost orchids. She has also spent several trips and many months in Costa Rica, Ecuador, and New Zealand, giving talks, judging, and spending time with other orchid enthusiasts. Conservation of native orchids means conservation of native habitats, a theme which permeates her talks. She continues to serve as Conservation & Education Chair for the New Hampshire Orchid Society, an accredited American Orchid Society judge, a member of the AOS Species Identification Task Force, on the Board of Orchid Digest, and participate in many annual Native Orchid Conference symposiums and field trips. She also enjoys being a member of the Manchester Garden Club!

Jean invites members and guests to bring their own orchids to show and share, especially if they have specific culture questions or the plants are in need of some TLC. Attendees will have the opportunity to win one of Jean’s plants.
