Regional & International Tours

Each year, Olbrich invites Botanical Society members and the public to travel to places close to home and far away. Past trips have offered the opportunity to tour other public botanical gardens or private display gardens, travel to foreign countries such as Thailand and France, try new foods, and shop at some of the best stores and plant nurseries.
