The Council of Chapters supports the mission of the Florida Native Plant Society to champion Florida’s native plants and their habitats.

Each FNPS Chapter has one Chapter Representative on the Council to provide their unique local perspective.  

The purpose of the Council is to facilitate communication among the chapters and with the FNPS Board.  It serves as a conduit of information that supports and strengthens the FNPS Chapters in their pursuit of the FNPS mission, and elevates local and regional issues and shares solutions throughout the Society.

Next Council Meeting:

** Meeting postponed ONE week. Please invite your social media chairs to the next meeting.

If you are unable to attend on Aug 30, your absence will not be counted against your attendance.
