Hamilton Native Outpost

Native plants are nature’s design for our climate and soils.

Native Seed

Locally grown, harvested, and ready to plant

Our passion for native plants cultivated our life’s work to restore glade, prairie, savanna, and woodlands for wildlife and pollinators. Native plants are the common thread connecting diverse land uses, including wildlife and pollinator habitat, forage, landscaping, and restoration.

Wildlife

Wildlife and pollinators love native plants!

Forage

Diversity benefits ranchers, wildlife, and soil health.

Wildflower meadows are beautiful spring to fall.
