In 1900, the founders of the Society for the Protection of Native Plants, which
evolved into today's New England Wild Flower Society, had a compelling vision�a
plant conservation organization to protect our native flora. Because of New
England Wild Flower Society, native plants of New England are better protected
and more appreciated than ever before. Today the Society is recognized as one of
the nation's leading plant conservation organizations.
The Society owns and
operates Garden in the Woods, the largest landscaped collection of wildflowers
in the Northeast. The 45-acre Garden, located in Framingham, MA, serves as New
England's premier showcase of native plants and as a center for botanical and
horticultural study and enjoyment. The Garden Shop sells native plants and
eco-friendly tools and gifts.
The Society owns and operates Nasami Farm, in
Whately, MA, which produces native plants for sale for homeowners, landscape
professionals, restoration projects, and towns. The sanctuary includes the
Roaring Brook Riparian Restoration Walk where research in planting techniques
are conducted.
