Review for Center for Plant Conservation, Inc., Escondido, CA, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

The Center for Plant Conservation stands in a class of its own when it comes to preserving native plant diversity in the US. Since its inception, the Center has been a consistent -- and sometimes the only -- voice on the side of plant diversity. By combining the assets of existing institutions, such as botanic gardens and arboreta, with those of land managers, CPC provides a pathway to survival for many species that would otherwise face a grim future.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

...seeing the change in public attitudes toward conservation when they are exposed to the importance of plant diversity.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

...work even harder to partner with land mangers, to ensure a future in the wild.

Role:  Professional with expertise in this field & Helped the organization in its formative years, and have continued to admire its progess ever since.
