Place Based

Ecological Stewardship

Our team works with landowners to apply the core tenants of ecological restoration. These tenants include, where applicable: Seeding and planting of native species, tree canopy and shrub reduction, invasive species control, and prescribed fire

Let in the light!

Often, tree canopies limit the biodiversity of an area as they can block the majority of the sunlight from reaching the forest floor. When the canopy is thinned, a larger variety of shrubs and flowers emerge which supports shelter and food needs of native wildlife.

Invasive Species Control

Hibiscus uses multiple techniques to control invasive plant species that we regularly find in our landscape. These plants need to be dealt with to allow native species to flourish with adequate sunlight and water.

Seeding & Planting

Planting native wildflower seeds and assisting in their propagation is vital for successful restoration and maintenance of the plant community. Diverse native seeds help ensure resilience against environmental challenges and enable the reestablishment of native insect, bird and mammal populations.

Prescribed Fire

Prescribed fire is one of the most important tools used in restoring local habitats. It has many ecological benefits such as: neutralizing weedy, non-native plants, creating the conditions for certain native species that rely on fire-dependent ecosystems, and minimizing the risk of uncontrolled wildfires
