Dear Colleague,

Five years ago a Road Map was developed for the conservation, use, and public engagement around North America’s crop wild relatives and wild utilized plants.

In 2024, BGCI-US, the United States Botanic Garden, and collaborators are planning a symposium in Denver, Colorado on September 17-19, 2024, to assess progress and discuss future priorities for this important group of plants.

Please take this 10-minute survey by February 29 to share your activities on crop wild relatives and wild utilized plants:

Your response will help us gauge progress and identify barriers for conservation of this important group of plants.

Please share this message with your colleagues and complete this survey by February 29, 2024.

Thank you!
