The Lancaster Native Plant Alliance is a committee of community-based conservation leaders who promote the use of native plants in all landscape settings through collaboration, education, and advocacy. It also serves as a chapter of the Pennsylvania Native Plant Society for the Lancaster area.

The Alliance aspires to:

• Provide a collection of educational resources to property owners, municipalities, and developers to promote the benefits and uses of native plant species and the impact of invasive species.
• Provide a directory of certified landscape designers, installers, and managers to utilize native plant species in their practice.
• Develop a directory of certifications made available for landscape designers, installers, and managers who are seeking continuing education in the use of native plant species.
• Develop an approved list of nurseries, seed providers, and native plant sales/events who provide native plant species.
• Create model native plant ordinances for municipal governance implementation.
