Lake Orion Flower Fair: New & Improved

Tiny tweak, big results. That’s the theme of the May 10th & 11th Lake Orion Flower
Fair.  Changes include moving the event to a Friday & Saturday, securing a date that coincides with Mother’s Day, revamping the layout and selecting vendors based on quality and appropriateness.  

The 13th Annual Flower Fair issure to impress while giving patrons the opportunity to find the perfect Mother’s Day gift. 

“We are really proud of the work that’s been put into overhauling the DDA’s Flower Fair.  Our goal was to make this event a Mother’s Day tradition along with providing great exhibitors and vendors plus a good selection.” said Suzanne Perrault Director of the Lake Orion DDA.
