Field Trip Information

Field Trips

NOSSA holds monthly fieldtrips throughout the year starting from late autumn to early summer. They are generally held on the Saturday following the 4th Tuesday of the month. Numbers are limited and though visitors are welcome, preference is given to members.

It is recommended that participants read and be familiar with the following documents:

Locations of field trips are subject to change due to the seasonal nature of orchid flowering times.
