Native Plant Society of Texas, North Central Chapter

The Native Plant Society of Texas was started in the Fall of 1980. It is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation. Our chapter was activated in June of 1993 with a small group of people. Today, we have over 400 members in our chapter.

We want all Texans to value native plants, native habitats and healthy ecosystems as essential to the well-being of living things and to our quality of life. Our vision is a future where native habitats are managed as critically beneficial natural assets, and where residential and commercial developments employ sustainable designs that preserve and promote native habitats.

Our more than 30 chapters across Texas further the mission of the Society at the community level, sponsoring educational speakers, field trips, workshops, on such subjects as plant identification, propagation and landscaping, work in demonstration gardens and many other types of projects.
