Native plant and animal populations are in steep and rapid decline. There is hope.
All of us, no matter our level of experience or knowledge, can help to create a more healthy and ecologically sustainable world. It starts with each of us. You can make a difference. You can effect change in whatever large or small piece of the Earth you steward. There is cause for hope.
To quote Greta Thunberg: "Once we start to act, hope is everywhere."
We see hope with every native seed that germinates, with every bee, bird, or butterfly that finds our garden installations, with every human who is inspired to become part of the solution to support, biodiversity, mitigate climate change, and promote environmental justice in their own outdoor spaces. Many of solutions are actually fairly simple, but it requires the collective.

In 2024, we launched IMAGINE Native Plant Farm at the Bioreserve in Glenmont, NY. Our plants are grown from seed that is responsibly collected by botanists from wild populations in our eco-region. Our goal is to help grow the supply of plants that are from and for the greater Capital Region. Native plants that have co-evolved over tens of thousands of years with the other flora and fauna that make up our region. Indigenous plants that support biodiversity and mitigate climate change.
