MORE INFO UNDER THE SHOW TAB!

Welcome

 The Eastern Iowa Orchid Society (EIOS), formerly the Iowa City Orchid Society, is as our logo states “A small group of people with a big love of growing orchids”. Members come from all around eastern Iowa. 

.

Pending the  COVID-19 VIRUS STATUS CHANGES:  we HAVE assumed normal in person club activities. I suspect most members are vaccinated but we will observe social distancing and masks optional. 

Our Orchid Show will be at the Elks Club Hall, 801 33rd Ave. Cedar Rapids on October 23-24th, 2021. Our next monthly meeting will be Nov. 4th   at the Shueyville United Methodist Church, Shueyville, Iowa. 

 The church is located 1 mile EAST of Exit 10 (Swisher-Shueyville) off interstate 380. Our meetings begin with a social time at 6:30 pm; followed by the official meeting and an educational program at 7:00 pm. Meetings are free and open to anyone interested in orchids! Our club displays orchids at regional orchid shows and participates in American Orchid Society orchid judging. Meetings include educational programs on beginning orchid growing, discussion about various types of orchids, and  orchid conservation.
