Our home for information, articles and discussion of conservation issues affecting native plants and their habitats in north Idaho. Set up and maintained by the Conservation Committee of the Kinnickinnick Chapter of the Idaho Native Plant Society (INPS).
Our goal is to create open the lines of communications between Conservation Committee members and between our committee and the chapter membership as well as others interested in preserving and protecting native plants and their habitats. This will be a place to post and share articles found in print or on the web, to forward emails or messages from other environmental groups, to post action alerts, to share our concerns about conservation issues, to foster discussion and to recive input from our membership.
I look forward to seeing you here on this message board as well as in the wilds of north Idaho!
