The mission of Coastal WildScapes is to preserve the highly significant biodiversity of Southeastern coastal ecosystems by protecting existing native habitats, rebuilding the connectivity of impaired habitats and minimizing the future fragmentation of the coastal landscape. We provide educational programs on sustainable conservation landscaping, native coastal fauna and flora, and threats to coastal environments; provide onsite consultation on native plant identification and selection, alternatives to invasive plants and conservation gardening and landscaping; and administer hands on programs, such as the WildScapes Certification Program, that actively engage local communities in protecting the biodiversity and coastal habitats of the Southeastern United States.
