About Grow Native!
"Biological diversity is the key to the maintenance
of the world as we know it."
~ E.O. Wilson, Biodiversity
A program of the Missouri Department of Conservation, the Grow Native! program helps protect and restore our state's biodiversity by increasing conservation awareness of native plants and their effective use. By building partnerships among private industry, non-profit organizations, government agencies and landowners, Grow Native! aims to significantly increase the demand for and use of native plants on all landscapes.
Grow Native! provides individuals, organizations, schools and government agencies with information, education and training materials that help them discover and use native plants. Grow Native! also offers businesses marketing materials that help "grow" sales.
