Why Native?
Restoring native plant habitat is vital to preserving biodiversity. By creating a native plant garden, each patch of habitat becomes part of a collective to nurture and sustain the living landscape for birds and other wildlife.
They provide shelter and food for wildlife & pollinators.
Native plants help you use less fertilizers & pesticides.
Using less chemicals leads to a healthier IRL and a healthier YOU!
Pick A Plant!
Want to purchase a native plant for your house or as a gift? Pick a plant and bring it to the ELC Entry Pavilion to purchase it. If you need additional information on which plant works best take a stroll through our native plant garden or just ask!
