The North Carolina Green Party is a political party in the state of North Carolina, and the NC affiliate of the Green Party of the United States.[2] It has officially qualified for ballot access as of 27 March 2018, until 2020 statewide election.[3][4][5] Since 2006, it has worked in collaboration with other organizations seeking to reform state election laws.[4]

The state party has five chapters, which are located in the Charlotte, Triad, and Triangle metropolitan areas and the Eastern and Western areas of the state.[6]

It is listed in The A to Z of the Green Movement, which was published in 2007.[7]

The party ran four candidates in November, 2018, including state legislative and congressional races.[8]

In August 2022, the North Carolina State Board of Elections voted to recognize the North Carolina Green Party as an official party in the state.[9]
