The Kentucky Native Plant Society was founded in 1986 for everyone interested in the native plants and wildflowers of Kentucky. Plants are essential to both the well-being of our Commonwealth's natural ecosystems and our enjoyment of its unique environment. With members throughout Kentucky as well as other states, the Kentucky Native Plant Society is a leader in promoting education about, appreciation for, and conservation of our native flora.
Our Goals are:
-To serve as the Kentucky native plant education resource
-To support native plant research
-To support efforts to identify and protect endangered, threatened, and rare native plant species
-To promote appreciation of the biodiversity of native plant ecosystems
-To encourage the appropriate use of native plants
