We have seven chapters that offer various activities, such as educational programs, field trips, plant sales, participation in local events such as Earth Day, workshops, and seasonal get-togethers. Some chapters offer hybrid programs, and you can request a Zoom link from the chapter.

Upcoming events are on our Events Calendar or contact your nearest chapter. Past programs with a statewide or regional appeal are available through our Presentations Database.

Each chapter has officers, manages its finances, and selects projects according to local members' special talents, knowledge, and interests. For more information, check out their pages:
