Wild Ones is a national non-profit organization that promotes environmentally friendly, sound landscaping to preserve biodiversity through the preservation, restoration, and establishment of native plant communities. The Kalamazoo Area chapter of Wild Ones was established in 1998 to help inform, educate and offer resources to people interested in learning about native plants. Presentations are free and open to the public. Doors open at 6:00 pm for social time.

Visit the Kalamazoo Area Wild Ones website for more information. Many past programs are available on their YouTube Channel.
