Our Partners

There are many organizations both locally and nationally that share our passion for native plants and whose mission closely aligns with ours. We believe that the greatest impact can be achieved when we work together and are grateful for the work we do with our partners!

Partnerships

Pollinator Pathway Bend

Community Pollinator Pathway projects are organized by volunteers working to establish pollinator-friendly habitat and food sources for bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and other pollinating insects and wildlife along a series of continuous corridors.  Most native bees have a range of about 750 meters, so the goal is to connect properties that are no farther apart than that. Native plants co-evolved with native pollinators and are therefore best suited to provide the specific food sources, nesting sites and shelter that pollinators need to thrive.  This mutually beneficial relationship ensures the health of both plant and pollinator populations, which is vital for maintaining healthy ecosystems and food security.

We are proud to work with Pollinator Pathway Bend to supply them with pollinator six-packs for their events and to work with them on developing shared resources that help our community learn more about pollinators and how to support them. Check our list of pollinator plants.

Think Wild

Think Wild's mission is to inspire the high desert community to care for and protect native wildlife through education, conservation, rescue, and rehabilitation so that we can be a high desert community that prioritizes native wildlife protection and conservation. They work hard to be a voice for native wildlife to strengthen advocacy for conservation – applying what they have learned from years of wildlife care to inform the community on man-made hazards in our growing, urban landscape, and advising on local and regional policies to reduce threats to wildlife. They also have a strong education hub to teach and inspire the public to live respectfully with urban wildlife.

We are proud to work with Think Wild to generate educational content and to share our knowledge of how native plants support local fauna. Check out our classes on creating animal-friendly native plant gardens.

Our sponsors play a critical role in powering the work we do to make ecology-based landscaping and the use of native plants part of how we do things in Central Oregon. They allow us to develop new courses and community outreach programs, to grow and donate native plants to our community and build new programs that engage and inspire our community. Thank you sponsors!
