New England Wild Flower Society is dedicated to conserving and promoting the region’s
native plants to ensure healthy, biologically diverse landscapes. Founded in 1900, the
Society is the nation’s oldest plant conservation organization and a recognized leader
in native plant conservation, horticulture, and education. The Society’s headquarters,
Garden in the Woods, is a renowned native plant botanic garden in Framingham,
Massachusetts, that attracts visitors from all over the world. From this base, 25 staff
and more than 700 volunteers work throughout New England to monitor and protect
rare and endangered plants, collect and preserve seeds to ensure biological diversity,
detect and control invasive species, conduct research, and offer a range of educational
programs. The Society also operates a native plant nursery at Nasami Farm in western
Massachusetts and has seven sanctuaries in Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
and Vermont that are open to the public.
