Why This Opportunity Is Unique

Unlike many volunteer marketing positions that focus on a single campaign or program, this role offers the opportunity to help shape the future of an emerging national nonprofit organization.

As our programs expand across the country, the Marketing Lead will play a key role in helping Native Flora Seeds build a national movement focused on restoring habitat, increasing biodiversity, and putting more native plants in the ground.

Why This Role Matters

America continues to lose habitat at an alarming rate. Native plants are one of the most effective tools available to restore biodiversity and support pollinators, birds, wildlife, and healthy ecosystems.

By helping grow Native Flora Seeds, you will help expand grants, recruit community advocates, increase awareness, support fundraising, and ultimately put more native plants in the ground across the country.

Our long-term vision is to empower communities nationwide to restore habitat where they live, work, learn, and play. Through local action and national coordination, we believe communities can become a powerful force for biodiversity restoration.

This is an opportunity to help build a national movement that empowers communities to restore habitat, strengthen ecosystems, and create a more biodiverse future.
