For 31 years, The Orchid Fair has been a leisurely time in summer for growers and collectors to gather and share their passion for orchids. The Fair strives always to provide you, our customers, with an unsurpassed diversity and quality of plants from all parts of the orchid world; from the United States as well as Central and South America, Africa, Asia, Australia and the Islands between. The Orchid Fair has flourished because, first, our vendors are true lovers of orchids and many have been coming since the beginning of the Fair and have formed good friendships with their customers. Second, everybody likes to come to Santa Barbara; it’s one of those special places. And third, SBOE is an outstanding adventure in itself with its collection, variety, knowledge & history, now of fifty years.
