Restoration

Interested in restoring prairie, savanna, woodland, wetland or other native plant community to your back yard, back forty or corporate grounds? Good choice! Native landscapes are a colorful, diverse, ever-changing, low maintenance alternative to conventional landscaping. They also attract and support birds, beneficial insects, butterflies and other wildlife.

Give us a call and our experienced restoration ecologists will:

• Evaluate your site for soil type, sunlight, existing vegetation, slope, views to screen or preserve and other ecological factors, as well as determine the pre-settlement vegetation type.
• Implement a site preparation plan that eliminates the weeds and readies the soil for planting.
• Create a custom seed mix or transplant list. Our custom mixes allow us to meet your restoration goals, stay within budget, emphasize your favorites and attract the wildlife you want to see.
• Plant the site at the proper time using the best method. For seeding, we offer mechanical or hand broadcasting and no-till seed drilling. Transplants are carefully planted by hand using specialized tools that speed the process.
• Provide a written management plan so you'll know what to expect as your native landscape develops and any needed management.
• Make regular visits throughout the process to ensure success.

We can take complete responsibility for all phases of the restoration, or provide just the amount of assistance you need to successfully do it yourself. We also provide custom native seed mixes and transplants suitable all habitat types as a stand-alone service. Urban, rural, corporate, large or small: We can do it!
