What we’re about
The mission of the Florida Native Plant Society (FNPS) is to preserve, conserve, and restore Florida's native plants and their habitats through education, advocacy, and community engagement. The organization works to protect Florida's natural heritage by fostering appreciation for native plants, restoring degraded habitats, and advocating for policies that support conservation.
Preservation: The FNPS works to acquire and manage natural lands and conserve the genetic diversity of native plant populations.
Conservation: This includes conducting rare plant surveys, organizing plant rescues, and managing both public and private lands to protect native species.
Restoration: The society undertakes projects like restoring habitats affected by development, invasive species, and altered hydrology, and supports research into native plant management.
Education: The FNPS provides information on native plants through educational events, publications, and workshops to members, homeowners, and land managers.
Advocacy: The organization engages in public policy and civic action, providing science-based advice to policymakers to protect native ecosystems.
