What We Do
Native Lands Restoration Collaborative leads programs and projects to support the sustainability of our native ecosystems. Education is at the heart of all of Native Lands' work. Learn more about our current projects and programs below.
Community Projects
We offer public education through grant-funded restoration projects on public lands. Native Lands has perfected a model of community-centered restoration projects that restore habitat and return native species to the landscape while incorporating education each step of the way. With the support of volunteers, we are able to expand the reach of these projects through partnerships and educational events.


Career and Skills Training
Filling a deficit of practical, hands-on land stewardship education, Native Lands will offer training to individuals and groups, cultivating the next generation of land stewards. At an individual level, Native Lands will offer internships to rising high school and college students who are interested in pursuing a career in the field of botany and land management. Native Lands will also work with groups, like school classes and neighborhood action crews, to provide practical training to groups interested in learning more about how to manage and care for our native landscapes. Additionally, skill and career training will be focused toward supporting at-risk youth and other groups who may not have access to relevant training.
Individual and Private Services
On a limited basis, we will consult with private landowners (individuals, land managers, municipal governments, groundskeepers) to help develop plans for restoration or management. Additionally, Native Lands staff can assist with designing seed blends for individuals and organizations interested in planting and restoring native plants to their land.
