Clear Lake Chapter - Native Plant Society of Texas

08/13/2026

The Clear Lake Chapter’s Native Pollinator Habitat Grant Program is accepting applications, and we’d love for your school, nature center, educational group, or youth organization to apply. In addition to traditional pollinator gardens, these grants can be used to provide native pollinator plants for rain gardens or ponds.

To qualify, the habitat must be in a location accessible to the public and in Brazoria, Galveston, and southeast Harris Counties. For application assistance or a site consultation, contact Cheryl Folkes at [email protected]. Don’t miss out on this chance to create a vibrant, educational space for your community!
