Conservation

The Georgia Native Plant Society is dedicated to the conservation of Georgia’s native plants and their habitats. This is carried out through countless hours and immense energy and dedication of GNPS volunteers. Our conservation projects include the work of more than 400 plant rescuers every year, propagators of native plants at Stone Mountain and crew members who are actively restoring twelve sites across Georgia. In addition, The Conservation Policy Committee (CPC) was established in 2006 and is responsible for reviewing Georgia native plant conservation policy issues relating to the mission statement and sharing those issues with our membership.
