We restore native plants to open spaces and neighborhoods, steward creeks and watersheds, and provide hands-on nature education. By increasing biodiversity together, we believe we can restore our own interconnectedness, wellness, and sense of place in a fast-moving world.
Snowberry (Symphoricarpos albus var. laevigatus) is a hardy native shrub that brightens the landscape with clusters of white berries through the fall and winter months. Its pinkish flowers attract pollinators, while the berries feed birds and wildlife. Thriving in sun or shade, snowberry is a beautiful, low-maintenance choice for habitat restoration and native gardens alike.
Western white clematis (Clematis ligusticifolia) is a showy vining plant in the buttercup family, with creamy white flowers that bloom through the summer and leave beautiful fuzzy white seedheads in the fall. This creekside plant is adaptable, easy to care for, and provides food and shelter for wildlife.
What does it mean to be a naturalist? It’s about noticing the small details, like observing the parallel veins of the blades of grass and the tiny bite marks left from the small insect stopping for lunch. Being a naturalist is about caring enough to pause and wonder, even if you don’t know the scientific names or the complex processes at play.
As you may have heard, our Co-Executive Director, Junko Bryant, will be moving to Hawaii this winter to be closer to her family. While it’s hard to say goodbye, we are happy to announce that Tyler Feld will be stepping into the role of Co-Executive Director alongside Alex Von Feldt. Tyler is excited to build on the foundation laid by Junko and Alex in their 15 years leading our organization.
