June Proclaimed as Kansas Native Plant Appreciation Month by Governor Sebelius
Governor Kathleen Sebelius has proclaimed June as Kansas Native Plant Appreciation Month! The Governor's proclamation urges all citizens to join in the observance of Kansas Native Plant Appreciation Month by enjoying, appreciating, and celebrating our floral diversity and taking advantage of the opportunities to learn more about our native plants, their habitats, and how to protect them.
Kansas Native Plant Society is celebrating Kansas Native Plant Appreciation Month with many different free events from June 1 through June 25. Everyone is welcome to enjoy these opportunities to discover our state's natural heritage. Explore nature, learn about native plants, and socialize with like-minded people at these outings. Take a native plant walk, visit a natural area, or become involved in a restoration project as we join together to celebrate this precious heritage during Kansas Native Plant Appreciation Month! For a list of wildflower walks, see our events calendar.
