The Florida Native Plant Society (FNPS) recognizes outstanding contributions to the conservation and preservation of Florida's native plants and plant communities. The Outstanding Chapter of the Year Award is given to chapters with outstanding efforts during the preceding year(s).

Recognition: We will announce and celebrate award winners on our social media, website, annual meeting, and in our Palmetto publication, which is circulated to over 6000 people. Traditionally, FNPS has awarded all winners with a plaque, however we are exploring ways of reducing our environmental impact. As part of this commitment, the Florida Native Plant Society will offer Palmetto awardees an award certificate (which uses less material).
