How Registration Works
Each fall, Growing Native welcomes individuals, families, and community groups to register for seed collection. Registration helps us coordinate collection efforts across the watershed and ensures state nurseries receive the right species in the right quantities.
Individual & Family Collection
Register to collect seeds from your backyard or approved community locations. You'll provide details about your collection site, planned collection date, and the estimated number of volunteers participating.
Group Collection
Schools, religious groups, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, day care programs, senior citizen groups, and community organizations can all register as group collectors. A site organizer must provide contact information and coordinate the effort.
What You'll Need to Provide
- Collection site location and planned date
- Estimated number of volunteers
- Site organizer name and contact information
- Group type (if registering on behalf of an organization)
