About Annual Events

Wildflower Weekend, at Natural Bridge SRP is a two day event in the spring that includes guided hikes, workshops, evening presentations, and opportunities to socialize with other native plant enthusiasts. Later in the year we have the Fall Meeting, at parks in other areas of the Commonwealth.

Policies

Welcome to the Kentucky Native Plant Society Gear Shop. We started this service to give members a chance to get t-shirts and other gear with the KNPS logo. Each product is produced by the manufacturer at the time of the order. Neither KNPS nor the manufacturer maintains any inventory. Because of this returns or exchanges are not possible if you order a wrong size, color, or simply don’t like the product. Please carefully double check your order before placing it. We can make exchanges if the product arrives damaged in some  way. If you have any questions or receive a damaged product, please contact us at KYPlants@knps.org. Thanks.

About KNPS Field Trips

Each year KNPS organizes field trips to explore Kentucky’s natural areas. Trip leaders are knowledgeable about the area being explored and the native plants and plant communities that are found in that area.

For the best experience and to protect sensitive plant habitats, the number of participants in the field trips will usually be limited. Because of this, pre-registration will be required for all trips. Registration forms will be made active 30 days before each trip.

We hope you can join us and experience the beauty and diversity of Kentucky’s native plant communities.
