PNPS is committed to supporting programs and events advocating for the use of native plants. Money obtained from memberships and donations go to the following:
  • Grants: PNPS provides support to community projects with donations of plants or grants to purchase plants.
  • Outreach: PNPS representatives travel across the state to various community events and set up an information table to distribute educational and other outreach materials. 
  • Newsletter: PNPS publishes a semi-annual newsletter to our members.
  • Annual Meeting: PNPS sponsors an annual meeting with speakers discussing a variety of topics relating to the use of native plants. This is also open to the general public at either no or low cost.

Member Benefits:

Members receive our Annual Newsletter, discounts on educational programming and the satisfaction of knowing that they are supporting our mission.

Membership dollars are used to purchase native plant seeds for outreach events, plants and seeds for demonstration gardens as schools and parks and also for sponsorship of educational projects like the Hometown Habitat, Upper Deleware Bioblitz and Pennsylvania Botany Symposium.  Membership dollars pay for the printing and mailing of our annual newsletter and speaker fees at our annual meeting. 

We hold an annual meeting each year, typically in November featuring various speakers as well as annual elections.

Volunteer

We invite you to work with us  to forward the PNPS mission. We need volunteers to help with a variety of projects including:  developing educational materials and producing our newsletter and organizing our Annual Meeting. There are things that you could help with from home on your computer and opportunities for working with the public at outreach events.
