If you’ve been propagating or transplanting native plants at home, we’d love to invite you to bring them to the wetland in the fall as part of our planting effort. This is an impactful way to build a personal connection with this restoration site.

To protect local ecosystems, we ask that:

• Any plants contributed are either salvaged or come from your own property, rather than harvesting from unmanaged areas
• Propagation follows ethical guidelines—we’ve included resources below!

We’re focusing on native forbs, grasses, and some shrubs to support the floodplain grassland character of the wetland.

Helpful Resources:

• Ethical Collection Guidelines – GOERT
• Wetland Plants of BC – BCWF
• Best Plants for Pollinators – Kootenay Native Plant Society
