Ceremonial Orchid Planting

Free
On August 27, community members are invited to experience Downtown Doral’s ceremonial orchid planting as part of its partnership with Fairchild’s Million Orchid Project (MOP), the nation’s largest educational outreach program dedicated to orchid conservation.
The event will kick off with a ceremonial planting of the final of nearly 1,000 orchids planted at Downtown Doral during the collaboration.
The event will also feature remarks from the Mayor of Doral, Christi Fraga, as well as executives from Fairchild and UHealth. It follows April’s educational planting in which 100 Downtown Doral Charter Elementary (DDCES) students planted 800+ orchids along 8 royal palm trees on Paseo Boulevard in Downtown Doral’s retail center.
UHealth, which is currently building a 160,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility at Downtown Doral, is supporting the plantings, symbolizing UHealth’s commitment to preserving life in the community. Downtown Doral is helping the orchids prosper and will handle their care and maintenance.
