About Us
Community Native Planting Project is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization which believes in the power of native plants as cornerstones in restoring the ecological balance. Since our founding in July 2020, reducing invasive, nonnative plants, decreasing the amount of turf grass, reestablishing site-appropriate native plants in public and private spaces, and thereby curbing climate change impacts to our greater community have been our primary objectives. But much like the native plant movement - we're growing. Join us as we plant with a purpose.
"If half of American lawns were replaced with native plants, we would create the equivalent of 20 million acre national park, nine times bigger than Yellowstone, or 100 times bigger than Shenendoah National Park."
