Connecting people and native plants
for a healthy planet

Wild Ones promotes native landscapes through education, advocacy, and collaborative action.

How You Can Help

A healthy planet starts with native plants

Dwindling biodiversity is a threat to the foundation of life on Earth. In the last century alone, we’ve lost millions of acres of diverse ecosystems to urbanization. 

Native plants help protect and restore biodiversity, improve air and water quality and provide wildlife with quality food and shelter. Our vision is native plants and natural landscapes in every community.
