Just in time for the holidays! After months of COVID delays and supply chain issues, NAOCC is pleased to announce that the orchid-gami boxed set is now available. If you’re not familiar with orchid-gami, this fun activity was developed by NAOCC and the US Botanic Garden to raise awareness about the conservation and ecology of our native orchids and the challenges they face.
The kit includes punch-out pieces to create 20 beautiful 3D paper orchids and a full color book that includes detailed assembly instructions, and photos of the completed model and how it appears in nature with information about orchid ecology.
These kits are available from several online vendors, listed below, but we have also included information if you prefer to support your local book shop. The publisher’s suggested price is $19.99, but if you look around, you may be able to find a deal for the holidays.
