Native Plant Nursery


Join us every Friday from 10am - 1pm to prepare seeds and sow and tend native plants we are growing in our watershed nursery for local stream restoration projects. We work with over 40 different species including maples, oaks, hazelnut, all kinds of berries, ferns, willows, dogwoods, redwoods and more.

Workdays range from cold wintery days to hot summer days... so come prepared with appropriate clothing, snacks and water.

    
Over 30 species of native plants are grown here by dedicated volunteers.
