Started in Massachusetts in 1993, the Native Plant Trust’s PCV program is the oldest rare plant monitoring program in the country. It engages conservation-minded volunteers in rare plant monitoring and seed collection, habitat management, and invasive species monitoring. Since its creation, the program has grown to a consortium of more than 120 professional botanists and more than 500 amateur volunteer botanists currently active throughout New England. In this July 14 webinar from 1 – 2 pm, participants will learn about the history of the PCV program, how it is run, and what changes are in store for the program. $12 for NPT members, $15 for nonmembers.
