The Nursery Network
Our goal is simple: we want to grow a massive supply of healthy, affordable, native plants to power our restoration projects.
Â
By using your backyard, patio, or greenhouse to grow plants, you are providing the starter plants that help neighbors plant native yards (Porch to Pathways) and help our civic teams build beautiful public gardens (Paces to Places).

How the Program Works
1. Start New
  Plants
2. Hands-on
  Learning
3. Grow at
  Home
4. Donate
  Plants
We give you seeds, cuttings, or divisions to get you started. You provide pots and soil.Â
We offer specialized Workshop Series to help you be successful. The training covers A to Z of plant propagation techniques.
You care for the plant starts until they are ready to be planted. This takes from 3-9 months. We guide you all the way.
Each September, we collect the grown-out plants and use them for our core products and activities.
