New York Flora Association

The New York Flora Association welcomes you. All interested persons are invited to join the New York Flora Association, an organization dedicated to the promotion of field botany and greater understanding of the plants that grow in the wild in New York State. Ours is a non-profit group administered by the New York State Museum Institute. It is funded largely by dues, but may also accept gifts and grants.

Goals of the Organization:

	to promote the study of New York's native and naturalized plant life
	to encourage the production of botanical publications that are educational to the public and beneficial to the scientific community
	to provide an umbrella organization for field and herbarium botanists that can represent their points of view
	to serve as an information exchange for botany clubs/societies and botanists of the State and promote common interests
	to gather information and voucher specimens leading to a complete atlas of New York State plant distributions
	to develop "ecological profiles" of our native and introduced plant species to aid in our understanding of their distributions, migrations and interactions
	to promote conservation and wise management of native plant resources and natural communities
