As a part of Homegrown National Park, our aim is to improve biodiversity and redevelop ecosystem function by planting native plants. Native plants can help restore food webs, clean and manage water, support pollinators, and sequester carbon! Your aim is to decrease turf on your property by 50% in area and increase native plants by 70% in volume.
This app will help you understand where you stand with these percentages. It will also provide you with resources such as iNaturalist and Grow Native Resource Guide to identify and understand native plants.
To use the app, input your property size, turf size, any native plants you currently have, then view results for your native plant area and volume percentages.
