If you are interested in botany, rare plants, wildflowers, conservation or just getting out into nature, this is the group for you.

The California Native Plant Society started this program to get people of all kinds involved in searching for and documenting rare plants. It's fun!-a little like geo-caching or maybe we should call it eco-caching.

For more information go to our blog at www.rareplanttreasurehunt.blogspot.com or to our site at www.cnps.org/cnps/rareplants/treasurehunt.
