Episode 186 - Tim Johnson is the Chief Executive Officer at the Native Plant Trust in Framingham, Massachusetts.
Tim Johnson is the Chief Executive Officer at the Native Plant Trust in Framingham, Massachusetts. He leads the organization’s 45-acre Garden in the Woods in Framingham,
Massachusetts; the Nasami Farm, a native plant nursery in Whately, Massachusetts; and the expanded seed-processing and storage facilities to support the new Northeast Seed Network. The Network is a regional initiative led by the Native Plant Trust to create a sustainable source of seed to meet the increased demand for native plants.
Johnson has an extensive background in environmental
horticulture and biological science from his long-standing career in conservation and botanic garden administration and leadership at Smith College.
Johnson’s affection for native plants was born from a
childhood spent exploring the great outdoors in Wisconsin. His appreciation for the importance of protecting the rarest of plants is from his graduate studies working with threatened orchids on the Florida Panther National Wildlife
Refuge.
