The John Clayton Chapter was chartered in June of 1984 and was named in honor of the colonial botanist, John Clayton.  Our membership includes beginners as well as professional botanists, novice and experienced gardeners, and folks who just like to walk and see some wildflowers and trees. 

We present educational programs at our meetings, as well as to schools and civic organizations, conduct firldtrips and workshops, participate in plant rescue and reloction, work on conservation projects, publish a bi-monthly newsletter, and have displays for libraries, schools, and events.
