About
the Growing Native Project
Growing
Native engages
thousands of volunteers in the Potomac
River region each year to collect native
hardwood and shrub seeds. The seeds are
donated to state nurseries in Maryland,
Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia,
where they are planted and used to restore
streamside forests throughout the 15,000
square mile watershed. More
Since 2001, nearly 56,000 volunteers in 4 states and the District of Columbia
have collected more than 164,000 pounds of seed for Growing Native.
