The Orchid Show & Sale is put on by the Orchid Society of the Ozarks. This special exhibit features displays of orchids from regional orchid societies and individuals, which are judged by American Orchid Society accredited judges. Each year, Garden Members have the first opportunity to purchase orchids and view the entries from the competition. 

The Garden marks the arrival of spring each year with our annual BGO Plant Sale. Guests can shop from 20+ local vendors selling a wide variety of plants, flowers, pottery, garden accents and art, and other products by local artisans. Garden Members get the first opportunity to shop!

Terrific Tuesday Nights is a family-friendly, free, summer series hosted at the Garden every Tuesday evening in June and August.

Guests enjoy different activities & themes each week, like Amazing Animals, Ice Cream Social, Sprinklerfest, and more!

During Firefly Fling, the Garden transforms into a whimsical realm, meant to inspire guests to embrace the magic of the outdoors.
