The Power of Native Flora

Native plants evolved with local soil, climate, and wildlife—they form the backbone of every thriving ecosystem.

They require less water, fewer chemicals, and provide perfect food for pollinators and birds.

How to Support Restoration

Start small: plant one native tree in your community space or replace a lawn patch with local grasses.

Every native plant reconnected to its landscape is a step toward ecosystem healing.
