Join The Friends of the Ahart Herbarium. Benefits include discounts on workshops,
newsletters and events.

By supporting the FOH, you will be supporting an all-volunteer organization whose mission includes providing support for the Herbarium and demonstrating and publicizing the value of the Herbarium to the community. The Herbarium is such an important resource, which is becoming ever more critical in the face of a changing climate. This dynamic archive helps us study regional plants, identify rare species, recover genetic information, and track plant range changes over time.

  • Hosting a monthly “All Things Botanically Related” live zoom presentation

  • Development of low-cost botanical workshops (technical and general)

  • Publishing a Bi-annual newsletter

  • Funding the Jim Jokerst Field Botany Award for student research in botany and plant ecology

  • Hosting an annual spring California Native Plant Photo Contest

  • Holding an Annual Meeting featuring an update from the year’s Jim Jokerst Field

  • Botany Award winner and a keynote speaker.
