Welcome to the Native Plant Society of New Mexico!

The purpose of the Native Plant Society of New Mexico (NPSNM) is to educate New Mexicans on native plant identification, ecology, and uses; encourage preservation of natural habitats; support botanical research; and promote use of native plants for conservation of water, land, and wildlife.

The society comprises hundreds of members; eight regional chapters, each with its own unique programs, activities, officers and committees; state executive officers and board of directors; and various statewide committees. NPSNM publishes a quarterly newsletter for its membership and other interested readers. Information about all these chapters, activities, programs, and officers can be found on this website, along with recent issues of the newsletter. The NPSNM also sponsors an active grants program, the Jack and Martha Carter Conservation Fund, which provides thousands of dollars in grant funds for education and research about the rich and diverse botanical heritage of the state.

Please explore our website and learn more about New Mexico's native plants and the organization that celebrates and conserves them. Become a member!
