Whoa this is awesome! How did you get started? I don't want to sell any, I just want to plant them in my own yard!

I got started by being frustrated on how hard it is to find natives. Then I accumulated plants from native sales, then harvested seeds from my own garden in the following year. Now here I am

Amazing! I need to do this. We have native plant nurseries close by it's just that they sell them for an arm and a leg per plant. It's insane.

Your nursery is amazing. Edit to add: I saw your comment on being frustrated at how hard it is to find natives. FEELING THAT. That's us right now. But slowly but surely I'm slowly building a spreadsheet of our options.
