Grow Native Massachusetts

Grow Native Massachusetts is an organization rooted in community. As friends, neighbors, and citizens of the Commonwealth, we are inspired by the significance of our gardens and green spaces, as they contribute to the integrity of our common ecosystem. We cultivate them for beauty and biodiversity, aspiring to create essential habitat for birds and butterflies, and to better understand the delicate balance that weaves all life together. We recognize that native plants create the foundation for healthy ecological communities, and know that our world—both locally and globally—is threatened by a decrease in native plant populations and the proliferation of invasives. Therefore, we act to: * Steward our land, no matter how big or small, as conservation land. * Plant our gardens with an emphasis on natives. * Work together to aid in the identification and removal of invasive weeds. * Bring the community together for learning, enjoyment, and conservation.
