Review for Native Plant Trust, Inc., Framingham, MA, USA
I work as a Plant Conservation Volunteer (PCV). As a PCV, we help monitor rare plant populations, remove invasive species, and do botanical surveys. All these efforts are coordinated through the New England Wild Flower Society. The society works with groups from ME, CT, VT, MA, and RI. They work with state governments and other conservation organizations.
The society works diligently to conserve our native flora. It produces reports on rare species, monitors them, and provides management plans.
It's a great society. I highly recommend it.
