Native Plant Nursery

Locally gathered and grown.

From seed to sprout, our nursery nurtures up to 120,000 native plants at any one time. The plants are unique because they are grown from seeds collected along Oregon’s North Coast, making them locally adapted to thrive in our coastal ecosystems. After 3 years of growing, strong root structures have developed, and the plants are ready for their new homes in the watershed. Once planted, they play a critical role in restoring habitats to create cleaner water and better habitats for fish, birds, pollinators, wildlife and people.

Plants for Coastal Restoration

Our nursery propagates and distributes over 75,000 native plants annually to the Northwest Oregon Restoration Partnership. These plants support landscape-scale watershed restoration projects implemented by our partners on private, state, and public lands.

Northwest Oregon Restoration Partnership:

This partnership was founded by the Bureau of Land Management in 2011. NORP is a collaborative effort of over 30 partners who are united in their need for locally sourced, genetically appropriate plants.

Service Area:

Spanning from Clatsop County to Douglas County. The service area map highlights the large area that benefits from the work of the partnership.

Who can join:

Nonprofits, schools, state and federal agencies and tribes.

What it means to be a partner:

Our partners are organizations completing restoration projects along the Oregon Coast.  Each fall the general inventory becomes available to the partnership and partners are able to request plants needed for upcoming projects. Partners must sign a Memorandum of Understanding and provide reporting for planted plants.

Please reach out to our Native Plant Partnership Coordinator: claire@tbnep.org

Each fall our general inventory becomes available to the partnership. Projects with less than 5,000 plants are able to pull from the general inventory. If your project includes forbs, you must place a preorder with about 2 years of lead time.
