Recovery Team
The conservation and recovery of  Nova Scotia's Coastal Plain Flora is lead, facilitated, and coordinated by the ACPF Recovery Team.  The Team was formed in 1996 with a key task being to develop a Recovery Plan to identify the problems faced by the ACPF, outline what actions must be done to recover and support the species, and evaluates their effectiveness.  

The ACPF Recovery Team consists of representatives from government, academia, industry, and non-government organizations.  Team members are committed and dedicated to conservation and recovery of ACPF.  They work and volunteer to share their expertise in the development and delivery of ACPF recovery in NS.  The conservation and recovery of these species of Coastal Plain Flora involves more than just the Recovery Team.  It involves community members, land owners, developers, farmers, foresters, industry, non-government organizations, and provincial and federal government departments.
