Wild Ones Mountain Laurel Chapter

Wild Ones Mountain Laurel Chapter is a Connecticut-based native plant organization dedicated to promoting natural landscaping and habitat conservation in the Northeast. Sponsored by the Connecticut College Arboretum and based in New London, CT, the chapter engages community members through monthly meetings, educational programs, and volunteer initiatives focused on native plant propagation, seed collection, and pollinator support. As part of the national Wild Ones network, the Mountain Laurel Chapter empowers local residents to transform their landscapes into thriving ecosystems that support native wildlife while reducing invasive species. Whether through hands-on volunteer opportunities, native plant sales, or educational resources on topics like softwood cutting propagation and rhododendron seed collection, the organization provides practical knowledge and support for anyone interested in creating sustainable, wildlife-friendly gardens and natural landscapes.
