About the MPWG

The Medicinal Plant Working Group (MPWG) was formed in 1999 to focus 
specific attention on issues related to medicinal plant conservation and 
sustainable use.  While the discussion should focus primarily on North 
American medicinal plant issues, we recognize that there are some common 
themes to sustainable use and conservation of medicinal plants around the 
world.  Thus, this list also welcomes international subscribers.
