Native Plant Society of Texas
LaBahia Chapter

  

The Native Plant Society of Texas (NPSOT) is a non-profit organization with the goal to promote the conservation, research and utilization of the native plants and plant habitats of Texas, through education, outreach and example.

The LaBahia Chapter supports Brenham, Texas and surrounding areas including Brazos, Burleson, Colorado, Fayette, Waller and Washington counties.  We normally meet Quarterly on the third Tuesday of the month at 7:00 pm in January, April, July and October.  Most meetings will be held at the Student Center on the Blinn College campus or at the Antique Rose Emporium in the Chapel unless otherwise noted.  Our meetings are free of charge and open to the public.  Join us for informative discussions and guest speakers on native plants that are specifically suited to the distinctive and unique environments in this area and throughout Texas along with other topics that are of interested to our members.
