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. This year’s grants are available for public spaces for up to $500 to install, enhance, or replace landscape plants with Florida native plants. The grant application and a site visit by the Grant Committee must be completed before the project may be approved.

Applications are accepted October 1, 2025, through April 30, 2026. Projects need to be completed by September 30, 2026.

To apply for a grant, download the grant application as a document: [ PDF]. Complete and sign the application and prepare a sketch or diagram of the planting area. Attach the completed application and sketch to an email and send to mangrovechapter@fnps.org or mail them to:
