Our Work
Fueling flower power and feeding bees
Our work for native, natural Florida and its creatures, including the bees that feed us, depends on the generosity of our members, donors, volunteers and sponsors, and those who purchase the State Wildflower license plate.
Each time a plate is sold or renewed, $15 is donated to the Foundation. Since 2000, more than $4 million has been raised for wildflower education, planting and research across Florida.
Each $15 plate donation supports:

Planting and conservation
We provide grants for wildflowers in schools and public parks, and we work with the Florida Department of Transportation and individual counties to identify and establish wildflower areas along roadsides.

Education and awareness
Our publications, events and programs give people the tools and knowledge they need to build and enjoy urban and roadside native wildflower corridors.

Research
Our studies are helping to grow more milkweed for Monarch butterflies, produce information on how insecticides harm Monarchs, and help farmers successfully plant and maintain pollinator habitat near crops.
