The mission of PLANT IT WILD is to foster greater awareness and appreciation of the fragile natural environment of our region. Through direct efforts we work to preserve, protect, and promote the natural beauty of the area and its plant communities.
Formed in 2000, PLANT IT WILD is an independent, non-profit with 501 (c) (3) status, native plant group based in Northwest Lower Michigan. We have typically offered 5 educational programs and a variety of field trips from May to September each year. These programs and trips promoted a wide array of topics about native plants.
Our Board members have served multiple terms without any replacements. For this reason we are pausing our 2027 program season while we search for new leadership or can merge with another existing 501 (c) (3) organization that has a similar mission.
During this programming pause, we are continuing to update and maintain our website, Facebook page, and email. We have three members who are able to offer presentations to groups wishing to learn more about the importance of native plants to Michigan’s ecological environment.
We encourage anyone interested in PLANT IT WILD’S future to contact us. Our email is: plantitwild2day@gmail.com
