Program areas at Grow Native Massachusetts

Evenings with experts - free public lecture series featuring experts on Native plant landscapes and ecological land stewardship. These events are free and open to all. Videos are created of these lectures and are posted on our website. Combined, these lectures and videos reach over 1,500 people each year. Native plant sale - once a year, we work with different nurseries to offer more than 130 species of Native plants to the public. This encourages the public to buy Native plants and helps build a stronger demand for natives within the nursery industry, promoting an ecological shift in growing practices. Workshops and demonstration garden - we offer both traveling and on-site workshops about ecological gardening, the importance of Native plants, and related topics. We have a demonstration garden that provides hands-on learning for working with Native plants.
