Native Plant Grants

The Mangrove Chapter of the Florida Native Plant Society has created a grant to enhance or replace landscape areas within our Chapter boundaries (Englewood, Rotonda, Venice, Wellen Park/North Port, Port Charlotte) with Florida native plants. Due to plant loss from Hurricanes Helene and Milton, this year’s grants are available to private landowners for up to $100 to enhance or replace landscape plants within our Chapter boundaries (Englewood, Rotonda, Venice, Wellen Park/North Port, Port Charlotte) with Florida native plants.  The grant application and a site visit by the Grant Committee must be completed before the project may be approved.  Special consideration will be given to trees and shrubs this year.  The private grant is available for this grant cycle only.

Applications are accepted November 1, 2024, through April 30, 2025. Projects need to be completed by September 30, 2025.

To apply for a grant, download the grant application as a [Word (.docx) or PDF] document. Complete and sign the application and prepare a sketch or diagram of the planting area. Photographs are welcome but not required. Attach the completed application and sketch to an email and send to mangrovechapter@fnps.org or mail them to:
