We are living in an age of extinction, but as long as there are plants and fungi there is hope.

As a charity, we rely on membership fees to continue our critical work promoting the importance of green spaces, inspiring everyone to live more sustainably and in harmony with our natural world, and using our collections and expertise to help solve the planet’s biggest environmental challenges.
