Curriculum Resource Development - Educator Survey

The California Native Plant Society (CNPS), in partnership with the Theodore Payne Foundation (TPF), the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden (SBBG), and the California Botanic Garden (CalBG), are currently in the beginning stages of working to develop a curriculum guide that can help support educators on their journey of including California native plants in their lessons inside and outside of the classroom.

Our organizations would love to get a better sense of where educators are with including California native plants in their lessons and consider any successes or challenges educators have had thus far. The feedback from this survey will help inform our direction as we move forward with this project.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to complete this survey. We are so thrilled to be creating a resource that will help inspire youth across the state to consider caring for, learning about, and developing a lasting relationship with California native plants!
