The chapter meetings are at 7:00pm on the 4th Wednesday of the month from September through May.
PURPOSE
Promoting and educating people in the use of native plants to enhance the environment and for ease of upkeep.
Speakers at monthly meetings come to educate and amuse. We take field trips to get introduced to new areas. A small nursery is maintained to propagate and grow native plants. We hold periodic public sales for these plants. Join us to learn and to socialize with others interested in Florida Native Plants.
This chapter covers north and central Brevard County from Scottsmoor to Viera and east to Merritt Island, Cape Canaveral and Cocoa Beach.
The Sea Rocket Chapter display and native plant sales at an Earth Day Family Fun Festival in Titusville's Enchanted Forest Nature Sanctuary.
