VNPS Special Projects Fund 2026
Special projects at VNPS extend our reach and magnify our impact as we protect and conserve native plants and their precious habitats.
Now, we need your support for three projects that are core to our mission and important to all of us.

This year, we invite you—our members and supporters—to continue being a significant agent of positive change by contributing to:
- a 100th birthday celebratory gift to Blandy Experimental Farm and the State Arboretum of Virginia;
- cover the cost of high-quality offset printing of Gary Fleming’s book and make possible the donation of the book to schools and libraries across the region;
- enhance our ability to fund native plant research through competitive grants.
Your gift to this fund will help support conservation and preservation of Virginia’s diverse and fascinating flora and rich biodiversity into the foreseeable future. Especially now, when native habitats are being threatened and species – both flora and fauna – are losing ground and disappearing under our watch, we need your commitment.
Thank you for your continuing support!
