projects and natural areas in Texas. - Advocate for the propagation and utilization of native
plants in urban and rural landscapes. - Engage in plant propagation and garden projects to promote native plant use.

Brazos County and surrounding areas are in the Post Oak Savanna also known as the East Central Plains region. This region of irregular plains was originally covered by post oak savanna vegetation, in contrast to the more open prairie-type regions to the north, south, and west, and the pine forests to the east.
