Earth Week Challenge 6: Native is Nature 🌿🌍

The best way to support your local environment is to grow the plants that were designed to be there.

The Mission: Research one plant species native to your specific region and give it a home. Whether you plant it in your own garden, add it to your office landscape, or gift it to a friend, you’re providing essential habitat and food for the local birds and bugs that depend on it.

Join the movement and tell us: What native plant did you discover today?

About a month ago I planted red and white trillium bulbs. They're just now starting to leaf out
