NCNPA seeks to provide a growing number of opportunities for farmers, wildcrafters, non-timber forest landowners, and other stakeholders in and around North Carolina to learn about medicinal plant cultivation, processing, standardization, and market opportunities. By hosting an annual conference, by convening member gatherings, by sponsoring grower tours, and by providing updated market-related information through the NCNPA newsletter and this website, NCNPA will help grow a solid base for North Carolina's natural products community. By joining NCNPA now at the earliest stages of this organization, you will help build a healthy new economic development strategy for rural North Carolina and beyond.
