More and more people are waking up to the importance of bringing native plants back to our gardens, but like other communities around the U.S., it can be a challenge to get our hands on the right plants.

Acadiana Native Plant Project is here to help!

TreesAcadiana is a non-profit organization dedicated to planting and conserving trees, urban and community forests.

The primary goal of the organization is to maintain the community’s living environment. TreesAcadiana sponsors public tree plantings; provides education on the importance of planting and conserving trees and urban forests; and, supports the preservation of historic trees and green spaces.

The mission of the Sierra Club is to explore, enjoy and protect the wild and beautiful places of the Earth; to practice and promote the responsible use of the Earth’s ecosystems and resources; to educate and enlist people to protect and restore the quality of the natural and human environment; and to use all lawful means to carry out these objectives.

The mission of the Bayou Vermilion Preservation Association Inc. is to create awareness of our natural environment by providing education and outreach to the general community about ways to conserve, protect and enjoy the Bayou Vermilion Watershed.
