People from across the region and beyond braved the rain on Saturday, May 14 to attend the Goulburn Valley Orchid Club Festival.
Rhonda and Willy Hawker from Camperdown were among the festival-goers and said they travelled to the event annually.
“We grow and we show our orchids,” Mr Hawker said.
Attendees could check out the winning orchids, sit in on demonstrations and purchase orchids to take home.
News reporter Georgia Rossiter captured some of the smiling faces at the festival.
