Upcoming Conferences

2022 California Native Plant Society Conference
2022 California Native Plant Society Conference

October 20-22, 2022 | San Jose, CA

The 2022 CNPS Conference is taking on an essential topic: How do we restore our connections to plants, place and people? Attendees are invited to be part of the conversation and the effort to celebrate, protect and restore California’s plants—and everything connected to them.

The 2022 CNPS Conference will offer opportunities to connect, learn and share around California’s native plants—and the diverse communities that depend on them. Presenters will include conservationists, scientists, horticulturalists, educators, researchers, outdoor enthusiasts, culture keepers and more. Together, we’ll explore how a deeper understanding of shared work today will lead to a better tomorrow for California’s native plants, through programming centered on four specific tracks: plant science, conservation, horticulture, and education.

Registration is live. Learn more.
