Growing and sharing native plants from seed is one of our main goals. Supporting an eco-friendly environment, enjoying nature and promoting viable habitat for pollinators is our focus.
|
Butterflies and native bees are essential pollinators in the ecosystem we share. We celebrate the importance and beauty of all the pollinators, from birds to beetles to ants and more!
|
Education in our community about the interrelatedness of native and non-native species, including humans, and how to nurture healthy relationships is vital to our well-being and environment today and in generations to come.
