HGCNY participates in various native plant projects, working toward our Wild Ones mission to preserve biodiversity.
Wild for Monarchs
Wild Ones is a partner in the Monarch Joint Venture.
Bird-friendly Native Plants of the Year
Inspired by the North Carolina Audubon’s Bird-friendly Native Plants of the Year program, we’re working with the local Onondaga Audubon chapter to create a similar program here in CNY.
We started our first year’s list of “Birdy Dozen” plants in 2017 and have added new lists each year, three years in advance so nurseries have time to propagate the listed plants. Learn more about our project and see our plant lists.
Discussion course
We offer a FREE six-session, self-facilitated discussion course for small groups (or even individuals). The concepts apply to any region, so groups from any part of the country can use these materials.
