Mission Statement

We're a nonprofit that’s all about transforming public spaces into vibrant native plant habitats. By swapping out exotic and invasive species, we boost biodiversity and improve soil and water quality, turning these spaces into beautiful and sustainable landscapes that everyone can enjoy. Through partnerships with local organizations and schools, we educate the public on the importance of native plants and sustainability.

Description

Formed in 2022 to improve the local environment for pollinators and wildlife, we've since completed a native plant habitat in Town Park, Corte Madera, CA.
We are always looking for like-minded individuals to help us plant, weed and take care of our native plant locations.
Your help will help improve the local environment, by bringing in local pollinators and wildlife. And create beautiful places for everyone to enjoy!
