He everyone, wasn't sure to do this as a society announcement or a sales as it is not really either (so feel free to move it). Anyway: The NASC and the ICPS has set up an auction to raise funds for conservation. The NASC will use the profits for plant rescues, the ICPS for signage on TNC property (TNC is one of the largest US organizations to manage nature reserves etc). for auction. Basic idea is the the upcomming days people can offer items (plants, seed, momento's, t-shirts, whatever). The highest bidder sends payment to the NASC account and the offering party and bidder will arange shipment. As some items can be send all over the world and the auction has the option of items being offered in all countries theremight be something for everyone. Please see the specific rules and conditions as both offering party and buyer MUST comply with all local and internatinal rules and regulations. See for rules and items here: http://icps.proboards.com/ Please feel free to share on local forums, FB, etc

Dear friends, I share this petition for saving Pietro Pellegrini's Botanical Garden. It's the only place dedicated to the protection, conservation and preservation of the exceptional Apuan Alps floristic richness, including the beautiful endemic species Pinguicula apuana and Pinguicula mariae (named by Casper, who described it, in honor of the botanist and garden’s curator Maria Ansaldi). We need your help for promote and protect this reality, now increasingly threatened by bureaucratic problems and the advance of the marble quarries who are devastating life and flora of these unique mountains, baptized “Garden of Europe”. You can sign at this link: http://iluoghidelcuore.it/luoghi/massa/massa/orto-botanico-pietro-pellegrini/17565 Thank you for your support!
