Go Native! perennials: doing our part to address seed scarcity

Read about seed scarcity here.

Obviously the seed scarcity problem is huge, and we are very small - but Go Native! perennials will do what we can in our eco-region to keep our natural history alive in hopes that it will one day thrive again!

As part of the Northeast Seed Network at the Native Plant Trust, we've received a list of plant species to grow, selected for several criteria:

• wide ranging across the NE

• relatively easy to grow/collect/store/propagate, and were likely to be included in restoration seed mixes (for a diversity of habitats)

• keystone species in a particularly habitat type

• underrepresented in the nursery trade, and likely good commercially

So, we're clearing more fields to grow more plants that will produce more seed!

Support our efforts to expand:

• Hire us to replace (some) lawn with a wildflower meadow

• Hire us to put in an ecological garden

• Hire us to grow native plants for restoration/re-naturalization work you'd like to do

• Buy native plants (only part of our inventory is online; come visit to see more!)
