Find suitable species to plant in any of the six pilot states

The pilot version of the toolkit covers the states of Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Washington. More states will be added over time. The map-based tool allows you to easily find plants suitable for your location that meet particular growing conditions (e.g., ecological sites, soil conditions, moisture requirements, and specific environmental tolerances) as well as provide specific benefits (e.g., livestock browse, wildlife habitat, and pollinator support). All content is from USDA and other authoritative sources. Once a species list is generated, the vendor match companion identifies where seeds and/or seedlings from your species list can be purchased. In partnership with the Institute for Applied Ecology, we are expanding the reach of these tools to include members of the Native Seed Network.
