      <title>MNPS 2026 Annual Conference: Diverse Landscapes of Maryland’s Piedmont and Western Shore (09/12/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;h1&gt;Save the Date!&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Registration will be required, registration will open in June&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Discover the unique landscapes of Maryland’s Piedmont and Western Coastal Plain from globally rare ecosystems such as magnolia bogs to the resilient and prevalent oak-hickory forests.&lt;/p&gt;
Due to the holidays in September (Labor Day, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur) and several large events at the venue, it was especially difficult to select a date for our annual conference this year. We recognize some members of our community may not be able to join us on the dates we chose and for this we are truly sorry. MNPS treasures our diverse community and wishes to welcome everyone as we explore and celebrate native plants and their habitats. Thank you for understanding and let us know how we can include you in the future.&lt;br&gt;
Sincerely, &lt;/br&gt;
The MNPS Conference Planning Committee&lt;p&gt;
