Goals, Values, Vision
My wife and I founded Native Plant Giveaway and its outreach program, Foster-a-Sprout. Through our annual North Metro Native Plant Giveaway event and community partnerships, we grow and distribute native plants to establish lasting pollinator and wildlife habitats.
We are both trained Restoration Master Volunteers through Butterfly Pavilion’s Urban Prairies Project (UPP), with hands-on ecological restoration experience.
We are seeking additional growing space to expand native plant propagation, habitat restoration, and sustainable growing opportunities. Our goal is to build collaborative partnerships that benefit the land, wildlife, and community.

Production Practices
Additional Details
We focus on growing native plants that support biodiversity, pollinators, and healthy ecosystems. Our approach emphasizes sustainable growing practices, conservation, and ecological restoration.
We propagate native plants from seed and grow them for distribution through our community programs, helping establish lasting wildlife habitats.
We are interested in expanding our growing capacity, exploring greenhouse production, and developing partnerships that support native plant propagation, habitat restoration, and long-term ecological health.
Production Goals
Desired Infrastructure
Equipment and Infrastructure Details
We are seeking a modest growing area for native plant propagation and seasonal production, ideally with access to water, electricity, and space for growing trays or tables. Existing greenhouse space or sheltered storage would be beneficial, particularly during colder weather, but we are also open to outdoor growing arrangements.
We have our own growing trays and equipment and can provide additional supplies as needed. We are flexible with our initial space requirements and interested in opportunities to expand production, establish native plant gardens, and collaborate on habitat restoration projects over time.
